The odd shower is still likely overnight but for many it will be dry with clear spells. The brisk wind will gradually ease, and turning chilly in some rural spots. Minimum temperature 10 °C.

Any showers should fade on Saturday morning to leave plenty of dry and bright weather with gentle winds. Some cloud arriving from the west later though, and staying fresher. Maximum temperature 19 °C.

Overall, a fairly unsettled period is likely to begin this period with many places seeing showers or longer spells of rain at times, interspersed by drier periods. Rain is likely be most frequent across northern and western areas, while the south and east are more likely to see longer drier interludes. There is also the potential for some strong and gusty winds at times, particularly in the northwest. Temperatures are likely to be near average. However, further into mid-September, more settled weather is looking increasingly likely, bringing drier conditions with lighter winds and perhaps some warmer conditions too.

Settled conditions are most likely initially before a transition to more unsettled and changeable conditions towards the latter parts of September, though confidence is low at this lead time. Driest conditions through this period are likely to be seen across the south east, with wetter and windier weather more likely to the north west. Temperatures are likely to be slightly above average initially before becoming near-average towards the latter parts of September.
