“We might be into meteorological autumn, but it is giving us something a bit more summery that many of us have been missing.”
A warm and pleasant weekend could herald some fine conditions for the first week of meteorological autumn as many schools go back after the summer break.
There is also the influence of former tropical cyclone Franklin which is still moving into the north Atlantic and amplifying the build-up of high pressure. He noted the “exception to that is the very far north of Scotland” where it feels “a bit different compared to elsewhere in the UK”.Mr Vautrey added: “As we head into the new working week, high pressure is going to be staying with us for the vast majority.
The Met Office said that as high pressure becomes established from this weekend, fine and settled conditions will develop and along with this there will be a rise in temperature across most parts of the UK next week.
