UK long range weather forecast

A weakening of the recent high pressure is likely at the end of the week, allowing some patchy rain to creep into parts of the UK from the Atlantic at times, but with very little rain in the east and southeast. High pressure is then likely to rebuild more strongly towards the end of the weekend and more especially into the following week, leading to widely settled conditions. However, it will still be breezy or even windy at times in the far northwest, where they may be some occasional rain. Elsewhere, often light winds may allow fog patches to form which could be slow to clear, with areas of low cloud also persisting at times. Temperatures will be warmer than average overall, although some occasional cold nights are possible.

Updated:

After a settled start to November, beyond mid-month there will probably be a change towards more unsettled conditions for a time. This means an increased chance of periods of wet and windy weather for parts of the UK, perhaps more so in central and southern areas. However, there is low confidence whether unsettled, wetter weather or drier and more settled conditions will dominate by the end of November. Temperatures will probably be close to or above average overall, although some colder interludes are possible, especially in the north.
