WARNING

Flood warnings in force for England

Environment Agency

South West England weather forecast

Headline:

Remaining changeable with rain tonight.

Today:

A drier day albeit still the chance of a few isolated showers. Sunny spells are likely through the morning, but any sunshine turning hazy through the afternoon. Still breezy, though winds easing through the morning. Maximum temperature 17 °C.

Tonight:

Cloudy with showery rain affecting parts of Cornwall and west Devon through the evening, before a band of heavier and more persistent spreads eastwards overnight. Increasingly windy by dawn. Minimum temperature 12 °C.

Wednesday:

Heavy, persistent rain clearing eastwards through the morning, though remaining mostly cloudy with outbreaks of patchy rain and drizzle throughout the day, perhaps turning heavy at times. Breezy. Maximum temperature 19 °C.

Outlook for Thursday to Saturday:

Remaining changeable with showers or longer spells of rain at times, though brighter interludes are possible. Often breezy. A little milder and more humid by the end of the week.

Updated: 05:00 (UTC+1) on Tue 16 Sep 2025

UK long range weather forecast

It is likely to be fairly unsettled at first, with areas of rain or showers, most widespread across central, southern and eastern areas, perhaps accompanied by some strong winds. Into next week, a northwest-southeast split is most likely, with some further rain or showers in southern and eastern areas, closest to an area of low pressure, whilst the best chance of longer, drier spells will be towards the north and northwest, where some patchy fog and rural frost are possible. It will also turn colder, as a northerly flow becomes established for a time. Later in the period, more widely drier and settled conditions could develop as high pressure becomes slightly more influential, although probably still with a few coastal showers. Temperatures should gradually return closer to average.

Updated: 15:00 (UTC+1) on Tue 16 Sep 2025

Signals for prevailing weather patterns become fairly limited by the turn of the month and the early part of October. As is typical at this time of year, there are likely to be some spells of wet and windy weather along with some drier interludes but no strong preference to whether settled or unsettled regimes will be most dominant. Overall, northwestern parts are more likely to be wettest and windiest. Temperatures likely fluctuating around average.
