An unsettled start to this period is expected across the UK. An area of low pressure is expected to lie close by, bringing outbreaks of rain to many areas. The rain may be heavy and prolonged in places, and accompanied by some strong winds. Western areas of the UK will probably see the highest rainfall totals. Thereafter, low pressure systems are likely to dominate the weather across the UK into November. This will mean changeable and at times unsettled weather, with a risk of heavy rain and strong winds in places. Some drier and brighter interludes are possible between systems. Temperatures are likely to be around normal or slightly above for the time of year.

Unsettled conditions will probably be dominant across the UK at first, with showers or longer spells of rain for all areas with a risk of strong winds. Temperatures are expected to be around normal. During the second half of November, the most probable outcome is for increasing amounts of dry and fine weather, although with some overnight fog and frost. Any wetter spells are more likely to affect the north of the UK.
