[Summer Sun]

Saturday 28 Sep - Monday 7 Oct

The unsettled conditions looks set to continue this weekend with a mixture of sunny spells and showers for most. The showers will be heaviest and most frequent across northern and western parts. However, there is the risk of heavy rain and strong winds arriving into the southwest later on Saturday and into Sunday. The unsettled weather looks set to remain as we go into early October, with further wet and windy weather likely to affect mainly northern and western parts of the UK, with the risk of gales at times. However, southern and eastern parts could see some drier and brighter periods, with the risk of overnight fog. Temperatures are likely to be near or a little above the average, but cooler in the wind and rain at times.

Tuesday 8 Oct - Tuesday 22 Oct

Confidence in the forecast remains low through this period. However, towards the middle of October we may see spells of fine and settled weather becoming more widespread, particularly in the south and east of the UK. These would bring bright days, but with the increasing risk of overnight fog and probably some frost. However, it is more likely that we will see a north/south split, with northern and western parts of the country continuing to see rain at times, and this might spread across the rest of the country as we go through October. Temperatures are likely to be close to the average, but with settled weather, some warmer days and cooler nights are likely.

Sunday 29 Sep - Tuesday 8 Oct

Outbreaks of heavy rain and strong winds in the southwest will move north and east across much of England, Wales and Northern Ireland and perhaps southern Scotland during Sunday. There is a chance that winds will reach gale force on coasts and hills. After a brief drier spell, probably on Tuesday and Wednesday, the unsettled weather looks set to resume through the first week of October, with further wet and windy weather likely to affect mainly northern and western parts of the UK, with the risk of gales at times. However, southern and eastern parts may see some drier and brighter periods, with the risk of overnight fog. Temperatures are likely to be near or a little above the average, but cooler in the wind and rain at times.

Wednesday 9 Oct - Wednesday 23 Oct

Confidence in the forecast is low through this period. However, towards the middle of October we may see spells of fine and dry weather becoming more widespread, particularly in the south and east of the UK. These would bring bright days, but with an increasing risk of overnight fog and perhaps some frost. However, it is likely that northern and western parts of the country will continue to see more in the way of rain and strong winds at times. Temperatures are likely to be close to the average, but with settled weather, some warmer days and cooler nights are likely.

[Summer Sun]

Monday 30 Sep - Wednesday 9 Oct

Mainly dry and bright on Monday, but cloudier conditions in the far north slowly edging south followed by more frequent showers. It will be windy in the far northeast, with a risk of gales. Further rain is likely at first on Tuesday, especially in the south, before perhaps becoming more generally dry for a time. Unsettled weather then looks likely to resume from mid-week, with further wet and windy weather likely to affect mainly northern and western parts of the UK, and the risk of gales at times. However, southern and eastern parts may see some drier and brighter periods, with the risk of overnight fog. Temperatures are likely to be near or a little above the average, but cooler in the wind and rain at times.

Thursday 10 Oct - Thursday 24 Oct

Confidence in the forecast is low through this period. However, towards the middle of October we may see spells of fine and dry weather becoming more widespread, particularly in the south and east of the UK. These would bring bright days, but with an increasing risk of overnight fog and perhaps some frost.

They have probably made an error in that they put the word draft meaning it was a first effort at a forecast and accidentally left it there once they had passed the forecast off - as Summer Sun says

[Summer Sun]

Tuesday 1 Oct - Thursday 10 Oct

Rain is likely at first on Tuesday, especially in the south, before it turns drier through the rest of the day and perhaps into Wednesday. Unsettled weather then looks likely to last through to the end of the week, with further wet and windy spells affecting mainly northern and western parts of the UK, where there will be a risk of gales on exposed hills and coasts. However, southern and eastern parts of the UK may see some drier and brighter periods, with the risk of overnight fog. Temperatures are likely to be near or a little above the average, but it will be feeling fairly cool in the wind and rain. It is likely to be cool at night, especially when skies are clear.

Friday 11 Oct - Friday 25 Oct

Confidence in the forecast is low through this period. However, towards the middle of October we may see spells of fine and dry weather becoming more widespread, particularly in the south and east of the UK. These would bring bright days, but with an increasing risk of overnight fog and perhaps some frost.

Wednesday 2 Oct - Friday 11 Oct

Fine and dry with sunny spells for many on Wednesday away from the northeast, where it will be windy with occasional blustery showers, and a risk of coastal gales. Dry and settled weather with lighter winds should continue through Thursday, however by the weekend it is likely that unsettled, wet and possibly very windy weather will return, bringing with it a risk of gales, especially in the north and west. During the following week the unsettled weather may begin to become more generally confined to the north and west, with occasional spells of drier and brighter weather, particularly in the south and east. Temperatures are likely to vary around average, although some cold nights are possible under any clear skies.

Saturday 12 Oct - Saturday 26 Oct

Days 16-30 Saturday 12th October to Saturday 26th October (word range 20-130) Confidence in the forecast is low through this period. Unsettled conditions are likely in the north and west at first, however, towards the middle of October we may see some periods of fine and dry weather developing, particularly in the south and southeast of the UK. These would bring bright days, but with an increasing risk of overnight fog and perhaps some frost. However, it is likely that northern and western parts of the country will continue to see more in the way of rain and strong winds at times. Temperatures are likely to be close to the average, but with settled weather, some warmer days and colder nights are likely.

Another great exercise in proof reading.

[Summer Sun]

Thursday 3 Oct - Saturday 12 Oct

It will be a chilly start on Thursday, with a rural air frost. Outbreaks of rain and strong winds will spread into western areas by the afternoon though, with gales possible. This unsettled weather will then move eastwards later in the day. By the weekend it is likely that unsettled, wet and possibly very windy weather will return, bringing with it a risk of gales, especially in the north and west. During the following week, the unsettled weather may begin to become more generally confined to the north and west, with occasional spells of drier and brighter weather, particularly in the south and east. Temperatures are likely to vary around average, although some cold nights are possible under any clear skies.

Sunday 13 Oct - Sunday 27 Oct

Confidence in the forecast is low throughout this period. Unsettled conditions are likely in the north and west at first, although, towards the middle of October we may see some periods of fine and dry weather developing. These will be particularly in the south and southeast of the UK, bringing bright days, but with an increasing risk of overnight fog and perhaps some frost. However, it is likely that northern and western parts of the country will continue to see more in the way of rain and strong winds at times. Temperatures are likely to be close to the average, but with settled weather, some warmer days and colder nights are likely.

[Summer Sun]

Friday 4 Oct - Sunday 13 Oct

Low confidence in the forecast on Friday, but it looks likely to turn more widely unsettled, with cloud and outbreaks of rain, perhaps heavy, moving erratically east across the UK. This will be accompanied by stronger winds than of late, with the risk of gales, perhaps severe gales around southern and western coasts. Into weekend it is likely that the unsettled, wet and possibly very windy weather will continue, especially in the north and west. During the following week, the unsettled weather may begin to become more generally confined to the north and west of the UK, with occasional spells of drier and brighter weather, particularly in the south and east. Temperatures are likely to vary around average, although some cold nights are possible under any clear skies.

Monday 14 Oct - Monday 28 Oct

Confidence in the forecast is low throughout this period. Unsettled conditions are likely in the north and west at first, although we may see some periods of fine and dry weather developing particularly in the south and southeast, which may bring some brighter days, but with an increasing risk of overnight fog and perhaps some frost.

[Summer Sun]

Saturday 5 Oct - Monday 14 Oct

Into the weekend it is likely that unsettled, wet and windy weather will continue to dominate, especially in the north and west with the risk of coastal gales. The best of any drier short-lived interludes will be most likely towards the southeast of the UK. During the following week and beyond, the unsettled weather may begin to become more generally confined to the north and west of the UK, with occasional spells of drier and brighter weather, particularly in the south and east. Temperatures are likely to vary around average, although some cold nights are possible under any clear skies.This may also bring an increased risk of mist and fog overnight and into the mornings.

Tuesday 15 Oct - Tuesday 29 Oct

Confidence in the forecast is low throughout this period. Unsettled conditions are likely in the north and west at first, although we may see some periods of fine and dry weather developing particularly in the south and southeast, which may bring some brighter days, but with an increasing risk of overnight fog and perhaps some frost.

Sounds like a euro high with the jet skirting the NW.

Standard stuff, if a little boring.

[Summer Sun]

Sunday 6 Oct - Tuesday 15 Oct

Outbreaks of rain are likely on Sunday, mainly in the north and east. Drier further west though probably turning wet and windy in the far west later. The unsettled weather looks set to continue to start next week with bands of rain moving eastwards. Brighter but showery and breezy weather is then likely to follow. Temperatures will be around average for the time of year but feeling colder in the wind and rain. Later in the week and the following weekend, there is lower confidence, though the weather is likely to remain changeable. A northwest/southeast split is possible with northern and western parts remaining unsettled. There are some signs for drier and brighter weather to develop by the end of the period, increasing the risk of fog overnight.

Wednesday 16 Oct - Wednesday 30 Oct

Confidence in the forecast is low throughout this period. There are some signs for a drier, brighter and more settled spell during the middle of the month. However, changeable conditions are more likely to dominate towards the end of October, bringing further bouts of wet and windy weather. Temperatures are likely to be near or a touch above average for October, with any quieter spells bringing overnight frosts.

https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/

[Summer Sun]

Monday 7 Oct - Wednesday 16 Oct

A spell of wet and windy weather is likely on Monday as a band of rain moves east across the country, followed by sunshine and showers. The unsettled weather looks set to continue through the start of next week with scattered showers or longer spells of rain at times. Temperatures will be around average for the time of year but feeling colder in the wind and rain. Later in the week and the following weekend, there is lower confidence, though the weather is likely to remain changeable. However, some longer drier spells may develop in the south and east. There are some signs for drier and brighter weather to develop more widely by the end of the period, increasing the risk of fog overnight.

Thursday 17 Oct - Thursday 31 Oct

Confidence in the forecast is low throughout this period. There are some signs for a drier, brighter and more settled spell during the middle of the month. However, changeable conditions are more likely to dominate towards the end of October, bringing further bouts of wet and windy weather. Temperatures are likely to be near or a touch above average for October, with any quieter spells bringing overnight frosts.

[Summer Sun]

Tuesday 8 Oct - Thursday 17 Oct

After early rain clears from the southeast, Tuesday is expected to be a windy day of sunshine and blustery showers, some heavy with hail and thunder. The unsettled weather looks set to continue for the rest of the week with scattered showers or longer spells of rain at times. Temperatures will be around average for the time of year but feeling colder in the wind and rain. Over the following weekend the weather may well remain changeable though there is less confidence about this. However, some longer drier spells may develop in the south and east. There are some signs for drier and brighter weather to develop more widely by the end of the period, increasing the risk of fog overnight.

Friday 18 Oct - Friday 1 Nov

Confidence in the forecast is low throughout this period. There are some signs for a drier, brighter and more settled spell during the middle of the month.

[Summer Sun]

Wednesday 9 Oct - Friday 18 Oct

Wednesday will be another breezy day with sunshine and blustery showers. The unsettled weather looks set to continue for the rest of the week with scattered showers or longer spells of rain at times. It will often be windy, particularly near northern and western coasts, where occasional gales are likely. The best of any sunshine will be in the south and east. Temperatures will be around average for the time of year but it will feel colder in the wind and rain. Over the following weekend the weather may well remain changeable though there is less confidence about this. However, some longer drier spells may develop in the east. The continuing unsettled weather will mean that nights will probably be cloudy, with very little in the way of frost.

Saturday 19 Oct - Saturday 2 Nov

Changeable conditions could well dominate towards the end of October, bringing further bouts of wet and windy weather. Some drier and brighter spells are likely, though these may be short-lived. Temperatures will probably be around average for October, though in those drier spells, overnight frost and fog will become more widespread. At the end of the period, the northwest is likely to stay on the wet and windy side, with greater chance of drier and brighter weather in the southeast though there is low confidence this far in advance.

Dreadful update for many if you enjoy crisp frosty dry Autumn weather.

[Summer Sun]

Thursday 10 Oct - Saturday 19 Oct

The unsettled weather looks set to continue for the rest of the week with scattered showers or longer spells of rain at times. It will often be windy, particularly near northern and western coasts, where occasional gales are likely. The best of any sunshine will be in the south and east. Temperatures will be around average for the time of year but it will feel colder in the wind and rain. Over the following weekend the weather is likely to remain changeable, with the wettest weather still most likely in the west. However, some longer drier spells may develop in the east. As a result of the unsettled weather, overnight frosts are unlikely untill the end of the period when occassional frost and fog is possible.

Saturday 19 Oct - Saturday 2 Nov

Changeable conditions could well dominate through the end of October and into the start of November, bringing further bouts of wet and windy weather. Some drier and brighter spells are likely, though these may be short-lived. Temperatures will probably be around average for the time of year, though in those drier spells, overnight frost and fog will become more widespread. At the end of the period, the northwest is likely to stay on the wet and windy side, with a greater chance of drier and brighter weather in the southeast, though there is low confidence this far in advance.

The mid October high pressure spell looks to have evaporated?

[damianslaw]

Suggests a very typical October - trough dominating, never particularly mild or cold, though I suspect the north will be generally under quite cold air at times. Could be a notably wet month as well, especially further west and north. 

[Summer Sun]

Friday 11 Oct - Sunday 20 Oct

The unsettled weather looks set to continue through the middle of October with scattered showers or longer spells of rain at times, but also some drier and more settled interludes. It will often be windy, particularly near northern and western coasts, where occasional gales are likely. The best of any dry and sunny weather will be in the south and east of the UK. Temperatures will be around the average for the time of year to begin the period, but it will feel colder in the wind and rain. During any drier and clearer interludes, which may only be short-lived, there is a risk of seeing overnight frost and fog. As we head further into the month, it may turn a little colder.

Monday 21 Oct - Monday 4 Nov

Changeable conditions could well dominate through the end of October and into the start of November, bringing further bouts of wet and windy weather. Some drier and brighter spells are likely, though these may be short-lived. Temperatures will probably be around average for the time of year, though in those drier spells, overnight frost and fog will become more widespread. At the end of the period, the northwest is likely to stay on the wet and windy side, with a greater chance of drier and brighter weather in the southeast, though there is low confidence this far in advance.
