Outlook for Saturday to Monday:

Much of this period will be dominated by high pressure to the east of the UK, and areas of low pressure over the Atlantic. Bands of cloud and rain will attempt to push eastwards at times, but possibly weakening as they do so. As such, there may be some reasonable dry weather during the early part of next week, with any significant rain most likely western areas. However, from midweek onwards it is possible low pressure may become increasingly influential, with an increased chance of rain, showers and perhaps strong winds, especially in the west or northwest. With winds often from a southerly direction, temperatures will likely trend above average, with some warm conditions possible at times. Towards the end of the period high pressure may become more influential.

Potentially some wet and windy weather at first, especially in the northwest, but a trend towards more settled conditions is most favoured for late October as high pressure becomes increasingly dominant. This would bring the potential for frost and fog at night, and possibly large variations between daytime and overnight temperatures. Into early November, high pressure may become more centred to the northwest of the UK, resulting in a gradual trend towards more unsettled conditions.
