Ruthin (Denbighshire) weather

Headline:

A damp and mild start to the week.

Today:

Today will be damp and grey with drizzly spells, and foggy interludes mainly along exposed coasts and hills. There may be brighter breaks, particularly during the afternoon in the east, which will help to nudge temperatures higher. Feeling very mild. Maximum temperature 20 °C.

Tonight:

Drizzly interludes will pass overnight. Heavy rain and strong winds will reach the west and central areas by dawn, with some coastal gales possible in the far west. Feeling mild. Minimum temperature 14 °C.

Tuesday:

A wet and windy start as heavy rain sweeps eastwards. Despite the sunny spells, the afternoon will feel cooler than on Monday with a fresh, gusty breeze following the rain. Maximum temperature 17 °C.

Outlook for Wednesday to Friday:

On Wednesday, bright spells and scattered showers, and strong winds with coastal gales. Winds easing through Thursday, but a band of heavy rain passes. A sunnier, more settled Friday.

Some rain at first across the far southeast of England on Friday, before high pressure brings settled and cooler weather through the weekend. Winds will be mainly light, but could still be breezy on some hills and coasts. High pressure is also likely to hold on into the working week, with fair weather with variable cloud amounts looking likely to prevail. Any low pressure systems running across the North Atlantic will likely be blocked and deflected towards Iceland, but some frontal incursions may make it through to bring some rain at times to parts of northern Britain. Temperatures look to be around normal for the time of year, with foggy or frosty mornings expected in the usual prone areas.

High pressure brings settled weather at first, but there are signs for a gradual shift away from high pressure and towards a more changeable pattern, with areas of low pressure moving towards the northwestern UK from the North Atlantic. Showers or longer spells of rain are likely, with the wettest and windiest weather typically in the west and northwest, and drier conditions favoured in southern and eastern parts. A trend to more widely unsettled conditions is possible into November. Whilst some occasional colder interludes will be possible at times, temperatures are likely to be near or a little above normal for the period as a whole.
