UK long range weather forecast
Following the very unsettled period we are now in, conditions across the UK are expected to become less unsettled and generally much drier, brighter, more settled conditions are likely to be established. Wednesday will probably see plenty of sunshine with some showers, the heaviest of these in the south and southeast. Temperatures will generally be slightly below normal through to the end of the week. Throughout the rest of the period many areas will be dry and settled and as winds fall light for many, overnight frost and morning fog will become more prevalent, especially in the south. Any more changeable, windier conditions are likely to occur in the far north. These generally settled conditions will probably persist through the end of the period with temperatures returning to near normal.
Updated:
Settled weather is likely to continue until late November, with high pressure looking to dominate especially in the south of the UK. This will bring generally dry conditions, especially for the south, with any spells of wet and windy weather mostly confined to the north. Towards the latter part of November the current signals suggest an autumnal setup, with unsettled conditions developing more widely. However, a return to settled, dry conditions is likely by early December.
