Rothbury (Northumberland) weather

Headline:

Widely windy and feeling chilly.

A mainly dry day with plenty of bright or sunny spells across the region, but breezy. Feeling especially windy along the east coast where gales are possible, accompanied by the occasional shower. Feeling cold in the strong northwesterly wind. Maximum temperature 9 °C.

Tonight:

Coastal showers will gradually ease through this evening leaving a dry night for most. Turning cold beneath clear skies, especially in rural spots where a touch of frost is possible. Minimum temperature 1 °C.

Sunday:

A settled start with some early morning sunshine, before cloud spills in from the west, with rain arriving later in the afternoon. Still feeling chilly and becoming breezy later too. Maximum temperature 9 °C.

Outlook for Monday to Wednesday:

Mainly dry on Monday with some sunshine, before things turn unsettled once more later in the week. Sunshine and blustery showers thereafter, with longer spells of rain at times too.

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 are most likely through to the middle of November with showers or longer spells of rain across all areas at times along with spells of strong winds. Temperatures through this period are overall likely to be around or above average with any colder spells short-lived between weather systems. From mid-November, while there is an increased chance of more settled spells, the likelihood of whether settled or unsettled conditions are more prevalent are reasonably balanced.
