-----UK,
Met Office - Longer Range Forecast, for the entire UK ©Met Office.:
---------
Wednesday 28 Oct - Friday 6 Nov
Unsettled conditions are expected to dominate for the rest of October, with
blustery rain and showers interspersed with occasional sunny spells across the
UK. Strong winds are also likely with a risk of gales at times. The wettest and
windiest weather is most likely to be seen in the north and west of the UK
whilst the best of any drier or brighter weather is likely to be across the
south and east. A change to generally drier, more settled and perhaps milder
conditions is expected for the start of November with any strong winds, showers
or longer spells of rain most likely confined to northern areas. Elsewhere winds
will probably become light. These more settled conditions bring an increased
risk of overnight frost and fog, particularly across the south.
Saturday 7 Nov - Saturday 21 Nov
For the remainder of November, it is likely to be a tale of 2 halves. The start
of this period looks set to see high pressure dominate, bringing more settled
than seen in recent times, particularly for the south with any wet and windy
weather most likely to affect the north-west. Although confidence lowers toward
the end of November, a return to unsettled autumnal weather is most likely, with
showers or longer spells of rain and strong winds, interspersed with drier
intervals. Overall, temperatures are anticipated to be at or below average for
this time of year.---------
