Hatfield (South Yorkshire) weather

Headline:

Tuesday, cloudy with hill fog and some patchy drizzle. Breezy.

Today:

A generally rather cloudy and grey day with hill fog and patchy drizzle on southern slopes. Perhaps some drier spells towards the evening before further rain arrives overnight. Breezy. Maximum temperature 13 °C.

Tonight:

Showery outbreaks of rain will move north, with the occasional heavy burst mixed in, and extensive cloud covering the hills. Continuing breezy but mild. Minimum temperature 11 °C.

Wednesday:

It will continue generally cloudy and breezy with occasional outbreaks of rain, heavy at times. Hill fog persisting. Mild. Maximum temperature 17 °C.

Outlook for Thursday to Saturday:

Turning drier and brighter on Thursday, and probably much of Friday before cloud, rain and stronger winds move east overnight and into Saturday. Brighter, drier conditions likely to return 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.
