WARNING

Flood warnings in force for England

Environment Agency

South West England weather forecast

Headline:

Rather wet and windy at times, but very mild.

Today:

Mostly dry in some eastern counties at first, but outbreaks of rain already in the west, soon spreading eastwards giving most places a very wet afternoon. Surface water flooding and travel disruption possible later with southerly winds strengthening. Very mild. Maximum temperature 16 °C.

Tonight:

Wet and windy this evening with heavy rain for many and further periods of rain or drizzle overnight. Coastal mist and hill fog developing widely. Winds easing later. Very mild. Minimum temperature 11 °C.

Wednesday:

Another largely cloudy day with rain at times, this occasionally heavy, mainly in the west. The driest and brightest conditions across eastern counties. Very mild but breezy in coastal regions. Maximum temperature 16 °C.

Outlook for Thursday to Saturday:

Staying mild or very mild on Thursday and Friday with showers or longer periods of rain, interspersed with brighter spells. Probably drier, brighter and fresher on Saturday. Breezy at times.

Updated: 04:00 (UTC) on Tue 4 Nov 2025

UK long range weather forecast

Changeable and at times unsettled weather is likely to continue into the start of this period, with low pressure dominating the UK. This means further showers or longer spells of rain at times. All parts could see some heavy rain, but it is likely that western areas will be wettest. Strong winds are likely at times, with gales possible in the west. Equally there should also be some spells of drier or clearer interludes, these more prevalent further east, and bring the risk of some overnight fog which could be slow to clear through the day. Temperatures most likely to be around average, particularly at first, and probably overall. Should it become more settled, the chance of overnight frosts would also increase.

Updated: 14:00 (UTC) on Mon 3 Nov 2025

A greater chance of periods of high pressure bringing more in the way of dry weather, compared to the current weather pattern, which also increases the chances of overnight fog and frost. There will most likely however still be periods of rain, showers, and stronger winds, especially in the west. Weather patterns are very uncertain during late November. Overall, near or above average temperatures are most likely though some colder spells are possible, especially should any prolonged settled spells develop.
