Edinburgh (Edinburgh) weather

Headline:

Dry, warm and sunny Wednesday with light winds.

This Evening and Tonight:

Dry with some evening sunshine leading on to clear skies overnight. Light breezes, which may allow a few isolated fog patches to form overnight mainly in prone areas. Minimum temperature 7 °C.

Wednesday:

Another fine day's weather with all parts expected to stay dry with prolonged periods of sunshine soon burning back any early fog patches. Winds light. Maximum temperature 22 °C.

Outlook for Thursday to Saturday:

Western and central areas dry with prolonged sunshine and relatively warm temperatures. However cloudier and cooler for the east, particularly around the coasts, courtesy of the light easterly winds.

Showers or longer spells of rain, heavy and perhaps thundery, will affect parts of England and Wales at first, especially in the south and southwest but tending to ease away to the southeast early next week. Elsewhere, generally settled conditions prevailing, albeit with low cloud and drizzle along North Sea coasts in particular; away from here, most places will experience above average temperatures during this period. A short-lived quieter spell of weather is possible during the first part of next week, before a transition to a more unsettled, mobile westerly pattern is most likely by midweek and beyond, with spells of wind and rain in many areas, but perhaps interspersed with occasional drier and brighter interludes.

Typical autumn weather will probably affect the UK with a mix of weather types through the first half of October. Periods of unsettled conditions, with wind and rain at times, will likely be interspersed with shorter spells of calmer and drier weather. Overall, wetter than average conditions are expected during this period, especially in central and southern areas. Temperatures are most likely to be close to or slightly above average overall, although some cooler spells are possible at times.
