Clough Head (Cumbria) weather

Headline:

Strong winds and heavy rain on Sunday.

This Evening and Tonight:

Turning briefly more settled through the evening, with winds easing and showers fading for most places overnight, though the odd shower may linger in the west. Clear spells allowing some mist and fog patches to form, and feeling cool. Minimum temperature 6 °C.

Sunday:

A dry start, but turning cloudier through the morning as a band of prolonged rain, with heavy downpours, pushes northeastwards. Blustery showers follow later. Gale force winds likely. Maximum temperature 16 °C.

Outlook for Monday to Wednesday:

Strong winds and blustery showers continue on Monday, with winds easing and showers fading overnight. A brighter and drier day on Tuesday before turning wet and windy again on Wednesday.

Likely a continuation of the unsettled theme to begin. All areas are likely to see spells of wet and windy weather followed by drier and brighter but still showery interludes. The wettest conditions expected to be across western parts of the country. There are signs that through the course of this period, drier spells will start to become more prolonged, especially across the south and east of the country due to a greater influence of high pressure. Some wet and windy spells remain probable but these potentially more focused in the northwest. Temperatures likely around average early in this period and often feeling rather cool given unsettled conditions. Increased chance of some warmer spells later in the period.

Signals for prevailing weather patterns become fairly limited by the turn of the month and the early part of October. As is typical at this time of year, there are likely to be some spells of wet and windy weather along with some drier interludes but no strong preference to whether settled or unsettled regimes will be most dominant. Overall, northwestern parts are more likely to be wettest and windiest. Temperatures likely fluctuating around average.
