Milder this weekend, but some heavy rain

A gradual change to the recent blocked weather, as low pressure develops from the south-west this weekend. Showery rain becoming widespread by Sunday. A return to a westerly regime next week, bringing showers in from the Atlantic, but conditions may improve later in the week as pressure builds from the south-west.

Sunday 16/10/16
Pulses of heavy showery rain pushing north & east across Britain through the day, become most frequent and widespread into the afternoon, may merge into several hours of constant rain. Scotland & north-east England may escape dry for many hours. Occasional sun, but mostly cloudy. A fresh breeze from the south. Fairly mild away from rain, temperatures 13 to 16C north, up to 17 or 18C south.


Monday 17/10/16
Low pressure centred to the north-west, and a front moving away into the North Sea. A zone of heavy rain is likely to clear across eastern England in the early hours, and may leave a largely dry and bright day for many places. Showery for Ireland, and showers increasingly spreading into western regions of Britain through the day. A light breeze from the south-west. Temperatures 12 to 17C, warmest south-east.


Tuesday 18/10/16
Low pressure remains to the north. A trough passes eastwards across the British Isles, bringing a few hours of frequent showery rain. Eastern England may be dry for a few hours in the morning, whilst western parts may improve later. Rain may set in for a few hours in western Scotland. Becoming cooler, and a squally westerly wind developing. Highs 11 to 16C.
 


Wednesday 19/10/16
A cool west to north-westerly pattern as low pressure passes east into the North Sea. Showers may affect many areas, locally frequent around coasts in the west & north. Some sunshine. Pressure may build from the west to bring improving conditions to Ireland and south-western Britain. Breezy and feeling cool, highs 11 to 15C.

Thursday 20/10/16
Details uncertain, but high pressure may establish itself across central and southern Britain, bringing dry and bright conditions, although chilly temperatures overnight, with some fog patches. A stronger westerly breeze in the north may bring rain to Scotland and Northern Ireland. Highs 11 to 15C.
