UK Weekend Forecast

Headline: A weekend of two halves, drier on Saturday but further wet and windy weather due on Sunday.

Saturday, September 28:

For most Saturday will be a drier day overall with a good mixture of drier spells and variable clouds but be warned, it will be a cold start to the day and it won’t warm up significantly so expect a chilly day overall.

There will unfortunately be some rain around, most notably across far N & NW Scotland and across the northern half of the UK there maybe the odd shower or two in places, these most likely across the west mind you with the east more sheltered.

Temperatures as mentioned won’t be great, generally between 6c to 11c but where you get the brighter spells you may nudge 12c or 13c in the south. Equally though in the far north where you stay wet for much of the day, you won’t rise past 6c here.

Sunday, September 29:

Sunday starts fine for many with a mixture of brighter spells and variable cloud but again it’s a cold start. Don’t expect such a good start across the south-west however as the next low pressure system edges in bringing rain and gusty winds.

This system will track east/north-east through the day bringing spells of heavy rain across N Ireland, England and Wales which will unfortunately lead to further flooding issues. The winds remain very gusty too with gales likely, even inland, with severe gales possible across some western and southern coasts.

S Scotland won’t escape the rain but it will land here later in the day, on the flip side northern Scotland probably get away with a decent day being north of the frontal system, with brighter skies and drier weather here until rain hits eastern parts during the late evening or night.

Temperatures will be fairly redundant for many given the winds expected. Values between 7c to 12c are likely but add the wind factor and it feels more like mid to low single figures.
