Penicuik (Midlothian Council) weather

Headline:

Mainly dry with sunshine but cloudy around North Sea coasts.

Today:

Low cloud clearing during the morning, but some lingering along the east Lothian coast. Otherwise another dry, sunny day and feeling warm for September but noticeably cooler at east coast. Maximum temperature 21 °C.

Tonight:

Dry and clear at first but mist and fog forming and low coastal cloud spreading inland during the night. Dumfries and Galloway will remain mostly clear but chilly here. Minimum temperature 10 °C.

Friday:

Cloud in the east expected to be slow to clear if at all, again western areas likely to see the best conditions with plenty sunshine here. Maximum temperature 19 °C.

Outlook for Saturday to Monday:

Western areas seeing some brighter conditions over the weekend but likely to be cloudy with some drizzle further east. Perhaps a few showers Saturday night. Less coastal cloud on Monday.

Showers with the potential for some longer spells of rain, heavy and perhaps thundery at times, will affect parts of England and Wales at first, especially in the south but tending to ease away to the southeast by the end of Tuesday. Elsewhere, generally settled conditions prevailing, albeit with low cloud and drizzle along North Sea coasts in particular; away from here, most places will experience above average temperatures during this period. A short-lived quieter spell of weather is possible then possible, before a transition to a more unsettled, mobile westerly pattern is most likely by midweek and beyond, with spells of wind and rain in many areas, but perhaps interspersed with occasional drier and brighter interludes.

Typical autumn weather will probably affect the UK with a mix of weather types through the first half of October. Periods of unsettled conditions, with wind and rain at times, will likely be interspersed with shorter spells of calmer and drier weather. Overall, wetter than average conditions are expected during this period, especially in central and southern areas. Temperatures are most likely to be close to or slightly above average overall, although some cooler spells are possible at times.
