The Met Office is warning of high pressure over the UK which has led to largely overcast weather conditions, low cloud and fog and will mean unsettled weather over the next few days.
But Edinburgh’s Hogmanay has checked and say that the weather on 29 December for the Torchlight Procession is perfect at the moment.
Neil Armstrong is a Chief Forecaster with the Met Office.
He said: “From Sunday we will start to see some heavy rain affecting northwestern parts of Scotland. After a brief respite, further rain and strong winds will be in place on Monday and Tuesday across Scotland, as another area of low-pressure approaches. This may be accompanied by some heavy snowfall in the mountains and perhaps to lower elevations.”
A yellow weather warning is in place for Monday and Tuesday in some parts of the country, with more likely as confidence in the forecast increases.
From New Year’s Day the unsettled conditions, and potentially disruptive wind, rain and snow, could affect more southern parts of the UK.
