The first full Moon of the new year rises just before 17:30 GMT on Monday and it could be visible through to Wednesday morning.
The cold and frosty nights we have seen recently will start to disappear as milder Atlantic air moves in. However, this also means a fair amount of cloud is expected for many parts of the UK, which is likely to obscure the view of this celestial show at times.
A weather front will move across Scotland on Monday, stalling across northern England on Monday night, bringing some patchy light rain and drizzle for central parts of the country. However, skies will clear behind it, giving better viewing conditions especially across eastern Scotland and later for Northern Ireland.
There could also be cloud-free skies across parts of central southern, south-east England and East Anglia on Monday night but with a risk of some mist or fog patches forming.
