Lews Castle Gardens (Na h-Eileanan Siar) weather

Headline:

Mainly dry, warm and sunny, cloudier in Western Isles later.

Today:

Dry with plenty of sunshine after any fog patches clear, but misty low cloud may linger across some north and west coasts. Feeling warm in the September sunshine with very light winds. Maximum temperature 23 °C.

Tonight:

A dry evening with a few clear spells developing, cloudier for the Western Isles with some drizzle here, some low cloud forming in eastern areas later. Minimum temperature 13 °C.

Friday:

Likely to be another dry, sunny and warm day generally but Caithness coastal areas, and perhaps Easter Ross, can expect some haar and drizzle to develop. Maximum temperature 21 °C.

Outlook for Saturday to Monday:

Over the weekend the east will experience low cloud and drizzle at times but drier and brighter in the west. A change is likely on Monday but perhaps some rain.

Showers with the potential for some longer spells of rain, heavy and perhaps thundery at times, will affect parts of England and Wales at first, especially in the south but tending to ease away to the southeast by the end of Tuesday. Elsewhere, generally settled conditions prevailing, albeit with low cloud and drizzle along North Sea coasts in particular; away from here, most places will experience above average temperatures during this period. A short-lived quieter spell of weather is possible then possible, before a transition to a more unsettled, mobile westerly pattern is most likely by midweek and beyond, with spells of wind and rain in many areas, but perhaps interspersed with occasional drier and brighter interludes.

Typical autumn weather will probably affect the UK with a mix of weather types through the first half of October. Periods of unsettled conditions, with wind and rain at times, will likely be interspersed with shorter spells of calmer and drier weather. Overall, wetter than average conditions are expected during this period, especially in central and southern areas. Temperatures are most likely to be close to or slightly above average overall, although some cooler spells are possible at times.
