Street (Somerset) weather

Headline:

Often cloudy this week but perhaps some sunshine in places.

This Evening and Tonight:

Some late sunny spells in some western counties but otherwise cloudy skies prevailing for most regions overnight and the best chance of clearer spells in the west. Turning chilly where skies remain clear, otherwise staying relatively mild. Minimum temperature 7 °C.

Wednesday:

A similar day to on Tuesday with cloudy skies continuing for most. Cornwall and Devon will be brighter at times with sunny spells. Feeling rather cool. Breezy on some coasts. Maximum temperature 15 °C.

Outlook for Thursday to Saturday:

Staying mostly dry albeit often rather cloudy, however some sunny spells are likely, particularly in western counties. Fog patches are possible overnight. Temperatures around average. Breezy at times.

A transition to more unsettled conditions than of late is expected at the start of this period, as low pressure from the Atlantic moves gradually eastwards across the UK. This will bring an increasing chance of rain or showers fairly widely, perhaps accompanied by some strong winds at times. It is likely to remain fairly changeable as further pulses of rain or showers affect parts of the UK through much of this period, but interspersed with some drier and brighter interludes. Towards the following weekend, and final week of October, high pressure may build to the west of the UK, and with low pressure to the east this may lead to a cooler and slightly drier northwesterly flow with a few showers.

It is likely to be changeable at first, with a showery northwesterly regime most favoured across the UK. Into November, an unsettled pattern is anticipated, as low pressure systems over the Atlantic track across the UK. These may be shifted farther south than normal, bringing showers or longer spells of rain fairly widely, perhaps also accompanied by some strong winds at times. Temperatures will probably be close to or slightly above average overall.
