Elswick (Lancashire) weather

Headline:

Showers clearing then cold overnight, chilly and dry on Sunday.

This Evening and Tonight:

Further showers this evening, these perhaps wintry over the northern Pennines and Cumbrian Fells. Becoming generally dry and clear overnight but isolated showers remain possible in Merseyside at times. Winds easing and turning cold with frost possible in rural areas. Minimum temperature 0 °C.

Sunday:

A cold and bright morning with some hazy sunshine. Cloud generally thickening through the day but occasionally bright at times. Feeling chilly with temperatures struggling for the time of year. Maximum temperature 9 °C.

Outlook for Monday to Wednesday:

Turning mainly dry and bright on Monday after a damp start. Largely dry on Tuesday with bright spells developing. Rain at times, occasionally heavy on Wednesday. Much milder than recently.

Through the second half of next week conditions will be very unsettled with rain affecting most regions at times. The heaviest rain is likely to be in the west or southwest to begin with, but later in the week, the focus probably shifting to central and eastern areas. Following the rain, a drier and brighter interlude is probable, before conditions turn unsettled once again by next weekend. However, most of the rain, showers and strong winds are likely to be in the northwest with southeastern areas often dry and bright. Temperatures will be above average and probably feeling warm in the brighter spells. Later in October, there is a chance of more settled conditions developing, but with temperatures falling closer to average and some overnight frost and fog.

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, particularly across southern regions.
