Pangbourne (West Berkshire) weather

Headline:

Tuesday, rather cloudy, some brighter, warmer intervals this afternoon. Breezy.

Today:

A damp and rather grey start with hill fog. However, drier, brighter intervals developing into the afternoon, and feeling rather warm where these occur. A freshening breeze developing, with showery outbreaks of rain spreading north during the evening. Maximum temperature 17 °C.

Tonight:

Showery outbreaks of rain will move north, with the occasional heavy burst mixed in. Areas of low cloud becoming more extensive again, with hill fog patches. Continuing breezy but mild. Minimum temperature 14 °C.

Wednesday:

Generally rather cloudy and breezy with some further occasional showery rain likely, locally heavy. However, drier, brighter intervals are possible in the east and feeling warm where these occur. Maximum temperature 20 °C.

Outlook for Thursday to Saturday:

Thursday, mostly dry and bright, a few showers. Friday, probably dry, although a small chance of a spell of rain, especially in east. Saturday, cloud and rain clearing east later.

There is potential for a deep area of low pressure to pass over or close to the west/northwest of the UK early in this period, potentially bringing a spell of very strong winds and heavy rain, especially to parts of the north and west. Through next week, an oscillation between occasional spells of rain, most frequent in the northwest, with longer drier interludes in-between, is likely. It may be rather windy at times too, again especially in northern and western areas. Towards late October there are signs that, whilst northwestern areas may continue to see some rain at times, high pressure may become increasingly influential, potentially bringing more widely settled and drier conditions, with an increasing chance of overnight frost and fog.

High pressure is likely to steadily become more influential around the turn of the month. This means plenty of dry weather to be had, but with the chance of overnight frost and fog becoming rather more widespread than in the days preceding this period. Some large fluctuations between daytime and nighttime temperatures are possible, with relatively mild days, where fog doesn't linger, and cold frosty nights. Towards mid-November, the area of high pressure may track towards the northwest, allowing a gradual trend towards colder and perhaps more unsettled conditions.
