Hello. October can be a curious month for weather. | 0:00:02 | 0:00:04 | |
Sometimes it goes against expectations. | 0:00:04 | 0:00:06 | |
We're reaching the peak of autumn - | 0:00:06 | 0:00:08 | |
you might expect deeper areas of low pressure, | 0:00:08 | 0:00:10 | |
storms that bring the leaves down - | 0:00:10 | 0:00:12 | |
but sometimes the opposite can happen. | 0:00:12 | 0:00:14 | |
It all get rather quiet. | 0:00:14 | 0:00:15 | |
Temperatures go up, not down, helped where you get some sunshine. | 0:00:15 | 0:00:18 | |
Many of us saw that during Wednesday, | 0:00:18 | 0:00:20 | |
lifting the temperature to near 20 Celsius in late October, | 0:00:20 | 0:00:23 | |
that is of course well above the average. | 0:00:23 | 0:00:26 | |
And that's where temperatures are staying by day and night | 0:00:26 | 0:00:29 | |
for many of us over the next few days. | 0:00:29 | 0:00:30 | |
Low pressure to the north of us, high pressure to the south of us, | 0:00:30 | 0:00:33 | |
the flow of air around those weather systems | 0:00:33 | 0:00:35 | |
bringing that air in from the Atlantic. | 0:00:35 | 0:00:37 | |
That's a mild direction. Nothing changing any time soon, | 0:00:37 | 0:00:40 | |
in fact we'll waft this mild air across us all through the weekend, | 0:00:40 | 0:00:43 | |
even into the start of next week. | 0:00:43 | 0:00:45 | |
We've had some mild Halloweens, even warm ones, in recent years. | 0:00:45 | 0:00:48 | |
What's Monday? Halloween. It looks like another mild one. | 0:00:48 | 0:00:51 | |
Indications of colder air lurking to the north of the UK, | 0:00:51 | 0:00:54 | |
and the forecast suggests that will try to come our way next week. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:57 | |
When it arrives, though, and exactly what weather it comes with | 0:00:57 | 0:01:00 | |
still open to question - I'll address that in a moment. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:03 | |
First, though, the next five days in detail. | 0:01:03 | 0:01:05 | |
This is Thursday's weather. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:07 | |
Foggy start in southern England, dense fog in places. | 0:01:07 | 0:01:10 | |
A weather front in north-west Scotland - | 0:01:10 | 0:01:11 | |
outbreaks of rain here, and a strong wind. | 0:01:11 | 0:01:13 | |
Many places, though, will have a dry Thursday - | 0:01:13 | 0:01:16 | |
broken clouds, sunny spells, | 0:01:16 | 0:01:17 | |
breezy, especially across the northern half of the UK. | 0:01:17 | 0:01:20 | |
Shouldn't affect the mild feel to the weather, 13 to 16 widely, | 0:01:20 | 0:01:24 | |
but maybe as high as 18 Celsius. | 0:01:24 | 0:01:26 | |
Rain moves south across Scotland | 0:01:26 | 0:01:27 | |
and Northern Ireland on Thursday evening. | 0:01:27 | 0:01:29 | |
On Friday, the weather front stalls, | 0:01:29 | 0:01:32 | |
and then tries to head back northwards again. | 0:01:32 | 0:01:34 | |
Close to that weather front on Friday, northern England, | 0:01:34 | 0:01:36 | |
North Wales, Northern Ireland, southern Scotland. This is where | 0:01:36 | 0:01:39 | |
you'll see the thickest cloud, maybe some patchy rain. | 0:01:39 | 0:01:41 | |
Northern Scotland, sunny spells, bright. | 0:01:41 | 0:01:43 | |
The rest of England and Wales, a lot of cloud, a few sunny spells, mild. | 0:01:43 | 0:01:48 | |
As we go into the weekend, | 0:01:48 | 0:01:50 | |
high pressure really starts to mark itself across the UK | 0:01:50 | 0:01:53 | |
as it expands its coverage of settled weather, pushing | 0:01:53 | 0:01:56 | |
that weather front northwards away from Northern Scotland. | 0:01:56 | 0:01:59 | |
Most places will have light winds. | 0:01:59 | 0:02:01 | |
Looks like a lot of cloud to come, but still it is mild. | 0:02:01 | 0:02:04 | |
There could be some mist and fog to start the day, slow to clear, | 0:02:04 | 0:02:07 | |
and again on Sunday. There may just be a weather front | 0:02:07 | 0:02:10 | |
getting closer to the north-west of the UK on Sunday - | 0:02:10 | 0:02:13 | |
that's still around going into Monday as well, | 0:02:13 | 0:02:15 | |
thanks to an area of low pressure just lurking to the west of us, | 0:02:15 | 0:02:19 | |
and it looks like this is going to be an important player | 0:02:19 | 0:02:21 | |
in our weather next week and how it evolves. | 0:02:21 | 0:02:23 | |
Here's Monday's detail for you. | 0:02:23 | 0:02:25 | |
Uncertainty about how close the fronts are to the west of the UK, | 0:02:25 | 0:02:28 | |
but the further west you are, you could see some outbreaks of rain. | 0:02:28 | 0:02:31 | |
Other places remain under the influence of high pressure - | 0:02:31 | 0:02:33 | |
yeah, it's a mild Halloween. | 0:02:33 | 0:02:35 | |
So how things play out next week | 0:02:35 | 0:02:37 | |
really depends on what happens with this area of low pressure, | 0:02:37 | 0:02:40 | |
how it eventually exits the sea, either pushing across the UK | 0:02:40 | 0:02:43 | |
or declining innocuously southwards away from us, | 0:02:43 | 0:02:45 | |
and as it does so, pulling in that colder or cooler air | 0:02:45 | 0:02:49 | |
as temperatures sink closer back to normal. | 0:02:49 | 0:02:51 | |
We could tap in to this wodge of cold air to the north-west of us, | 0:02:51 | 0:02:54 | |
bringing those temperatures down, | 0:02:54 | 0:02:55 | |
We could tap in to this colder air in Scandinavia, | 0:02:55 | 0:02:58 | |
again bringing the temperatures down. We'll see how it plays out, | 0:02:58 | 0:03:01 | |
but it looks like cooler weather eventually arriving | 0:03:01 | 0:03:03 | |
as the week goes on, temperatures returning to normal. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:06 | |
But the sort of weather it comes with still looks fairly benign. | 0:03:06 | 0:03:09 | |
Yes, we may see a bit of rain or a few showers, | 0:03:09 | 0:03:11 | |
but it looks pretty quiet, | 0:03:11 | 0:03:13 | |
and that means a continued lack of those deep areas of low pressure, | 0:03:13 | 0:03:16 | |
really active weather that'll bring the leaves down, | 0:03:16 | 0:03:19 | |
and possibly cause more damage. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:20 | |
They are not in the forecast next week, | 0:03:20 | 0:03:22 | |
and indeed, at the moment, as far as the eye can see. | 0:03:22 | 0:03:25 | |
I know many watching this broadcast may say, long may it last. Bye-bye. | 0:03:25 | 0:03:29 |
