Storm Austen is moving away, only to be replaced by Storm Boelo. It will bring a very wet and windy day to much of the UK. The worst impacts this weekend will be felt in the north, with the strongest winds likely tonight and tomorrow. On the plus side, the clocks go back one hour at 2am tomorrow morning, meaning an extra hour in bed to avoid the foul weather.

Monday: Heavy outbreaks of rain spread northeastwards. In southern and central areas brighter conditions return and it becomes much milder than recently. In sunny spells it could feel quite warm.

Outlook: Changeable weather continues for several days, so all regions could have showers or longer spells of rain. However, during the second half of the week high pressure is expected to build, leading to more settled conditions. Halloween could be a spooky affair if that is the case, with an increased chance of mist and fog.
