The jet stream will play a big part in the UK weather this weekend. It's movement will have a significant and very noticeable influence. As it moves south over the next 24 hours, cooler more unsettled conditions will prevail. However, as it then returns north, high pressure will build from the south, bringing sunny weather for many on Sunday and Monday. | Met Office

A weak jet stream sits across the UK over the next few days, with the cooler air being 'squeezed out' into next week... The warmth won't necessarily mean sunshine though, it will be fairly cloudy and humid, with rain for some | Met Office

The Jetstream is certainly ramping up and as a result we'll see some rather unsettled weather at times, especially next week. Later today we see another system move in from the Atlantic which will bring wet and windy weather, initially to Northern Ireland and Ireland before northern and western areas see some rain throughout tonight and tomorrow. The main focus is on next week and we again look to the west out in the Atlantic. The jet stream, ramps up a further notch and the models are suggestin

The Jet stream is certainly full steam ahead which can only mean one thing. Unsettled! ✅ More showers and longer spells of rain. ✅ Blustery for many with gales in the west and northwest ✅ Mild! I'm not seeing anything, apart from perhaps the odd temporary ridge of high pressure, that will stop the Atlantic train, with further areas of low pressure dominating our weather outlook. I did say a few weeks ago get set for an unsettled period of weather! The attached video animation is from our interac

The jet stream is near the UK over this weekend bringing unsettled weather conditions across many areas. However, the jet will make steady progress north through the week. This will allow high pressure to then build from the south, particularly on Thursday. High pressure will then bring drier, brighter and more settled conditions to many parts. | Met Office

This animated JET STREAM FORECAST shows how the northern and southern streams are to combine or "phase" to generate the vertical motions in the atmosphere which will drop Central U.S. barometric pressures precipitously---generating wind and significant precip in the process. The color scheme highlight wind velocities. Note how a powerful phased "wind max" develops aloft over the Central U.S. in this animated forecast. It's that wind max that is to drive rapid intensification of the winter storm

As we look ahead to the coming few days, the jet stream will generally lie across northern parts of the UK. This will focus more of the rain here, with the driest and brightest conditions across the south-west. Despite this, the jet stream is never too strong so the rain should not be too heavy, and all areas should enjoy some drier spells | Met Office
