View the weather with our interactive map
Turning drier with some clear or sunny spells. Winds easing.
Showers largely fading to leave a mostly dry night with some clear spells developing. Fairly brisk winds at first, especially near to coasts, but easing overnight. Minimum temperature 8 °C.
Mainly dry with good spells of sunshine, though some patchy cloud and a few isolated light passing showers around. Feeling warmer away from coasts with lighter winds. Maximum temperature 17 °C.
Fine Friday with light winds and some sunshine after early patchy mist and fog. Starting fine this weekend then becoming wet and windy. Temperatures above normal, perhaps locally rather warm.
Updated:
An Atlantic low pressure system will drift eastwards across the UK through the first part of next week. This will bring widely unsettled conditions, with showers or longer spells of rain, heavy and persistent at times, especially over hills. Strong winds are possible too, with exposed and windward coastal areas prone to the strongest winds. The theme of low pressure will continue to dominate the weather for the rest of the week, with showers or longer spells of rain. There is a possibility that a deeper low pressure system, ex-Hurricane Kirk, will move close to the UK around mid-week, bringing further spells of wet and windy weather. Alternatively, this system could remain to the west of the UK. However, the theme of unsettled weather is expected to prevail.
Updated:
A continuation of low pressure systems tracking in from the Atlantic is the most likely scenario for the rest of October. This means wet and windy weather at times, especially across England and Wales, but with a suggestion that Scotland and Northern Ireland may be more likely to see longer breaks in the weather, and more in the way of drier spells. It is possible that these drier conditions could be seen more widely later in the month as higher pressure further north extends southwards for a time. This would also bring an increased chance of overnight fog and frost. Temperatures will tend to be close to average overall in the south, but probably below average in the north and northwest.
