Changeable through the week

Friday: Windy. Showers or longer spells of rain push southeastwards through the day, but there will be sunny intervals too. The driest conditions are likely to be in the south and east.

Saturday: Sunny spells and blustery showers, which will be the heaviest and most frequent in the north and west. Feeling chilly, particularly in the north.

Sunday: After a chilly start with patchy ground frost and fog, sunny spells develop widely. Scattered showers are likely, but many places remain dry. Later in the day cloud builds from the west.

Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday: Changeable. Showers or longer spells of rain are possible in all regions, but there will be significant differences across the UK. In the north west there is the potential for strong winds and very wet conditions, whilst in the south east amounts of rain are likely to be below the average.

Mixed weather continues

Week 2: 16/10 to 22/10

Mixed conditions are expected. In the south there should be a reasonable amount of dry weather. However, showers or longer outbreaks of rain and strong winds are likely at times, mostly in the north and north west. Temperatures are forecast to be a little above the norm overall, although rather chilly nights are possible in drier and clearer periods.That also leads to the chance of mist, fog and patchy frost forming on some nights.

Forecast confidence is very low.

Expected developments

Week 1

A changeable pattern persists through the week. Initially a chilly northwesterly flow will cover the UK, but later on areas of low pressure will generally track northeastwards, taking them close to Ireland and north western Britain.

High pressure continues to have influence, with most models showing it centred to the south or southwest of the UK. It suggests that conditions will be more mixed in the north of the UK than the south.
