On Friday, the far north of the UK will see some rain and drizzle, and it will be rather windy here. Other western parts of the UK may also see some light rain and drizzle at times. The rest of the country will be dry with some bright or sunny spells and fairly light winds. Thereafter, high pressure is expected to dominate for most if not all of the rest of the period, bringing plenty of dry, settled weather. Cloud amounts will be variable, and some overnight fog is likely, this slowly clearing through the morning. Thicker cloud and some rain may affect the far north at times though. Temperatures will be near average overall, but with some chilly nights possible, perhaps with isolated frost.

The final third of October will likely see a transition to more unsettled conditions across the UK, with high pressure relinquishing its grip, though the timing and manner of this is uncertain. Whether this takes the form of successive depressions moving in from the Atlantic or a rather slower-evolving weather pattern remains to be seen, but there is a greater chance of most if not all places seeing spells of rain or showers and possibly strong winds later in the month, these conditions continuing into the start of November. Temperatures will probably be close to average overall.
