Today's Weather Forecast
Tuesday 27th January Good morning, everyone! As we embrace this winter’s day across the UK, Tuesday, the 27th of January 2026, promises to be a day of mixed fortunes on the weather front, so let’s delve into what you can expect. Starting in the south-east, the day kicks off with a rainy start, turning gradually stronger as the morning unfolds. Temperatures will hover around a mild 10.8°C, though the persistent rain might dampen outdoor plans. Keep those brollies handy, as it’s likely to be a soggy morning, especially for any early commuters. Heading over to Wales, it's a wet beginning here as well, with showers lingering through the early hours. It’s a windy day too, with gusts reaching over 32 km/h, keeping things brisk. So if you're in the area, a good waterproof might be just the ticket. As we move north into Scotland, a damp afternoon awaits, particularly around mid-day when a band of rain is expected to pass through. Temperatures are on the chilly side, peaking at around 6.4°C, with a notable breeze adding to the wintry feel. The Midlands will experience a rainy and grey morning, with short spells of reprieve as we progress into later parts of the day. Similar wet conditions are expected across northern England, accented by some heavier bursts particularly in the north-east as we approach mid-morning. However, the day may end on a drier note—perhaps a sign of better things to come. Turning our attention westwards to Northern Ireland, it’s a rather soggy scene today, with significant rainfall particularly in the early hours. Winds here are quite gusty, pushing just over 42 km/h, which may impact travel, so best to check ahead if you’re planning on being out and about. In the south-west, rain is the morning’s companion, interspersed with some stronger winds. But take heart, the south-west often finds a brief period of calm before the rain returns, so keep a lookout for those dry patches scattered through the day. Overall, it's advisable to equip yourselves with waterproof gear and maybe a dash of patience as the weather today is set to showcase a rather traditional British winter mix. Do stay safe and have a wonderful day despite the wet conditions. Here’s hoping for some sunshine on the horizon soon!
