Unusually chilly weather for October looks likely, with daytime highs typically only in the upper single figures. The warmest weather looks to come later in the period, potentially around 16°C, subject to considerable change. A sharp drop in overnight temperatures is expected during the second week. There are hints of colder nights later on, with minimums possibly around -3°C. With temperatures forecast to fall to or below freezing, overnight frosts may well develop, particularly during any clear spells.

There will be some wet spells, with rainfall totals near 34mm over the period. Colder interludes may bring a risk of sleet or snow.

These forecasts use interpolation to improve accuracy for your specific location, and are powered by either ECMWF or GFS model data depending on your selection. As with all weather forecasts, confidence decreases rapidly beyond 5 days ahead — treat the later dates as a heads-up about possible conditions rather than a firm prediction.
