A grey, chilly but mostly dry Bonfire Night
Thursday stays cloudy across North West England, with low cloud and hill fog this morning, especially around west Cumbria and Morecambe Bay. There will be a few brighter breaks this afternoon, mainly in the lowlands. It is dry for nearly everyone, apart from the chance of a little light drizzle in isolated spots, such as Wirral or the northern hills.
This evening looks dry for fireworks, though low cloud will be widespread for a time and it will feel chilly. Tonight stays dry and mostly cloudy, with fog over the fells and Pennines.
Highs today reach 10C to 12C, warmest on the coasts, while hills will be colder. Overnight lows are around 5C to 7C.
Winds are light to gentle from the east, with gusts mostly 15 to 22 mph across the lowlands. On the western slopes of the Pennines, gusts could reach 30 to 40 mph, and up to 45 mph on the fells east of Penrith.
