Despite the season, some parts of the UK are set for a surprisingly warm start to November. As we move beyond Halloween and into the new month, temperatures aren’t expected to plummet.
In fact, one weather forecaster predicts that the mercury could rise towards 20C in just under a week’s time. According to Netweather.com, the south-east of England could see a high of 18C on November 6, which is significantly warmer than usual for this time of year.
Large areas of southern England and the Midlands will experience slightly cooler temperatures, ranging between 16C and 17C. While Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland won’t enjoy such mild conditions, it won’t be particularly cold either, as reported by the Express.
The radar from Netweather shows that north, south and central Wales will see temperatures around 13C, as will Northern Ireland. In Scotland, the Scottish Borders could see the mercury hover around 14C, while in the Central Belt it’ll be a degree or two lower.
Meanwhile, temperatures in the Highlands are likely to be below 10C. However, other forecasters have predicted colder nights at the start of next month.
The Met Office long-range forecast for the period between November 5 and November 14 reads: “High pressure is likely to dominate the weather across many parts of the UK during this period. This will mean plenty of dry and settled weather for most, although it may be fairly cloudy at times.
“Where skies clear overnight some areas of fog and frost are likely to develop. Southern areas are expected to be mainly dry during this period, while any more unsettled conditions and periods of rain are more likely to affect areas further north, particularly the north and northwest of Scotland and Northern Ireland.
“Winds will likely be light in the south, but there could be some spells of strong winds across the north and west. Temperatures will probably be close to normal overall, although some cold nights are possible at times.”
