A lot of meteorology can be spotted on the satellite image below (courtesy of Meteocentre.com).

A mature depression is situated over the Baltic, whilst a long trailing cold front extends back across central Europe toward Iberia.

There are some speckled convective showers over the northern North Sea, whilst a small frontal system encroaches into western Britain.

To our west, a developing depression is sending a shield of high cloud ahead of it, advancing toward Britain associated with a strong jet stream aloft.

This will wind itself up into a strong storm system tonight, bringing severe gales to northern Britain.

A cold front will advance south across Britain tomorrow, and wintry showers will follow, so the satellite image will change again as our weather remains in a changeable mood.
