Forecast For Abersoch Issued: Friday 7th February , 2025 - Issued at 7.10am by Chas

Headline Summary: A Chilly Wind Today.

Bore da - Good morning from Abersoch... we'll soon be moving this forecast to a new site, so watch this space for details... we are in the midst of a chilly spell of weather, however, the sunshine has felt really rather pleasant over the last couple of days, especially in spots sheltered from the light breezes. High pressure to the east or northeast of Britain is set to dominate for some time, however, an area of low pressure will never be too ar away from the south of England and this will mean we see more cloud over the coming days. When you combine the cloud with an easterly breeze coming off the continent and/or the North Sea, that is a recipe for some cold feeling conditions. The easterly picked up here yesterday evening and although easterly winds are a bit fickle in the Abersoch area during the daytimes, there will probably be enough wind here at times to bring a noticeable wind chill. The overnight wind is one of the reasons why temperatures have not fallen as low this morning as was the case yesterday...

Today: Friday: Some sunshine this morning but we will see patchy cloud build at times during the day. We will also have an east-notheasterly wind which some charts suggest could gust fresh to strong. The wind may be up and down in strength with some lighter periods possible. The wind will also bring a rather cold feel to the day with temperatures up to between 6c and 7c. Variable amounts of cloud overnight with the chance of a light shower and we may see a touch of frost in very sheltered spots.

Saturday: Plenty of cloud on Saturday with a light to moderate east-northeasterly breeze. There is a chance of some spits and spots of rain or sleet. Feeling cold with temperatures up to 6c. One or two showers are possible overnight and there may be too much cloud for frost.

Sunday: Brighter on Sunday with some sunshine and variable amounts of cloud. Feeling cold in the light to moderate east to northeasterly breeze. The wind may freshen on Sunday evening and night.

Monday: Cold and cloudy with a noticeably chilly east-northeasterly winds and one or two showers of rain or sleet are possible.

Outlook: The easterly weather continues from Tuesday to Thursday with some bright peiods but we may continue to see a fair amount of cloud and some precipitation in the form of rain or sleet at times - details to be confirmed.

Extended Outlook: The outlook for the period from Friday 14th February to Tuesday 18th February ...is for high pressure generally to the east and low pressure trying to push in from the west. Which air mass becomes dominant is yet to be determined but some wintry precipitation for a time cannot be ruled out if we remain under the influence from the colder air to the east.

Charts below are a snapshot from the major models. Note that anything beyond about 5 days is pretty speculative - so treat all extended charts with caution...
