Forecast For Abersoch Issued: Monday 20th January , 2025 - Issued at 7.15am by Chas

Headline Summary: The Cloudy Weather Continues.

Bore da - Good morning from Abersoch... after a cloudy and rather chilly weekend, the cloudy weather is set to continue during today and tomorrow and some damp weather is likely too. A front will be close by to us during tonight and tomorrow, so we could stay under some rather wet weather for much of that period. At the moment, Wednesday looks like seeing the best of the weather this week, as a front looks like bringing a wet spell on Thursday, followed by a deep area of low pressure bringing gales or severe gales by Friday. The jury is out regarding wind strengths this weekend, but it does look rather changeable, so we have nothing that can really be described as being settled coming up over the next week or so, with Wednesday perhaps the exception...

Today: Monday: The cloudy weather continues today and some light, showery drizzle is possible at any time and the cloud may be low. Perhaps more in the way of rain later in the day. Light to moderate winds again from the south or south-southeast, veering to the southwest later and it will again feel chilly with temperatures climbing to between 7c and 8c. Temperatures staying around 8c tonight with some persistent rain through the night and moderate winds from south-southwest.

Tuesday: Cloudy and wet through the day as a front is set to be close by. There is a chance that the position of the front will shift to allow some drier weather, but at the moment, it looks wet. Moderate winds from a southerly quarter. Temperatures up to around 8c. Clearer overnight and there could be a touch of frost later in the night.

Wednesday: Potentially brighter on Wednesday with not much breeze, so feeling a bit more pleasant, but temperatures will again be fairly chilly.

Thursday: Rain in the morning with the chance of a drier and brighter afternoon. Rather windy from the southwest. Temperatures up to around 8c. Gales from a southerly quarter and rain overnight with the gale perhaps becoming severe.

Outlook: Gales or severe gales from the southwest on Friday. Bright spells are possible but some squally showers may blow through. Some uncertainty regarding the wind strengths at the weekend, but it looks like being a changeable one with some brighter and drier periods, along with the chance of showers blowing through.

Extended Outlook: The outlook for the period from Monday 27th January to Friday 31st January ...is for unsettled weather with gales at times. Probably becoming fairly mild at times.
