High Seat (Cumbria) weather

Headline:

Cloudy and rather breezy, with patchy rain turning heavier overnight.

This Evening and Tonight:

Increasingly breezy this evening, particularly along the west coast. Cloudy as well, with mist and patchy fog lingering across the Pennines. Outbreaks of rain spreading northwards become persistent and occasionally heavy, bringing a risk of localised flooding in the south. Minimum temperature 13 °C.

Wednesday:

Unsettled with further outbreaks of rain. Heavy spells at times, slow to clear north-eastwards due to light winds across the region. Feeling warm in any dry spells. Maximum temperature 17 °C.

Outlook for Thursday to Saturday:

Briefly more settled on Thursday with isolated showers. Becoming cloudier and windier with south-westerly winds pushing patchy rain, occasionally heavy, across the area on Friday and Saturday. Staying rather mild.

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 may become more influential into early November, potentially providing longer spells of dry weather, 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 night-time temperatures are possible, with relatively mild days where fog doesn't linger, and cold frosty nights. Towards mid-November, high pressure may become more focussed towards the northwest of the UK, allowing a gradual trend towards colder and perhaps more unsettled conditions, especially in more southern and eastern areas.
