Late September warmth before wind and rain returns this week
A vast area of low pressure in the Atlantic is set to draw warm south to south-easterly winds across the UK early this week, but for some rain will not be far behind.
Tuesday looks as if it will be the warmest day and after that temperatures will generally return closer to the September average.
Much of the UK can also expect a spell of wetter and windier weather from the approaching depression, with the most unsettled conditions likely to affect Scotland, Northern Ireland and western parts of England and Wales.
However, many central, southern and eastern areas of England, which have been affected by drought, may see far less rain.
Warm southerly winds ahead of Atlantic weather fronts
Last week saw the autumn equinox, so our nights are now longer than our days.
This means that despite the warmth in the September sun, we are getting some cooler nights under clear skies.
So it will be notably chilly on Monday morning, perhaps with some fog patches to be aware of for the commute.
Once the fog clears a brighter day will follow for many, with high pressure allowing sunny spells and just a few scattered showers.
South-east England may see some welcome rain throughout the afternoon and evening, but it is by no means guaranteed. Temperatures will range from the mid to high teens, with some southern areas reaching 20C.
