UK long range weather forecast

Many parts of south will be mainly dry at the start of this period, with high pressure tending to build from the Azores toward the UK. More unsettled in the north with lower pressure and weather systems moving in from the Atlantic to bring showers or longer spells of rain at times, the heaviest of which will be across hills in the northwest. Toward the end of October and into the start of November, conditions will likely turn more unsettled across the UK as whole, with low pressure systems bringing showers or longer spells of rain to most areas. Some drier and brighter interludes are likely between systems. After a cool start, temperatures will probably rise close to or slightly above normal later.

Updated: 15:00 (UTC+1) on Tue 21 Oct 2025

Changeable and unsettled at first with weather systems moving in from the west. These will bring spells of rain to most areas, heavy at times, with a risk of strong winds. Drier and brighter interludes are likely between systems. Conditions may become more settled and mainly dry towards the end of this period. Temperatures are expected to be close to normal or slightly above.
