Very windy near coasts, turning showery in the northwest.

A rather windy day with strong gales likely in the west. Mostly dry to start with patchy cloud and a few sunny spells, before outbreaks of rain spill into northwestern parts in the afternoon. Maximum temperature 16 °C.
Tonight:
Cloudy with further spells of rain feeding into all areas throughout the night. Breezy through the evening but winds easing down by the end of the night. Minimum temperature 7 °C.

Updated:
UK long range weather forecast
Rather unsettled conditions are expected to dominate the period, with outbreaks of rain and blustery showers in many parts of the UK, though the extent of which is low at this time. The focus for the heaviest and most frequent rain is across western areas, whilst rather windy conditions particularly in the northwest at times may pose a risk of gales or even severe gales mainly around coastal areas. Intermittent brighter and drier spells may also last for a time in all parts of the UK, with most of the more settled conditions perhaps most likely in eastern and south-eastern parts. Overall, temperatures looking to be generally close to or a little below normal for the time of year.
Updated:
Confidence is low for this period, but the generally unsettled wet and windy theme is expected to gradually transition to a more settled picture through early November, especially in the south of the UK. Elsewhere, showery and windier conditions may remain more prevalent in the north. Temperatures may dip slightly below normal in the more settled periods, allowing for an increasing likelihood of overnight frost and fog developing.
