As the leaves begin to change and the days get shorter, many of us are feeling a bit disappointed with the less-than-summery summer we just had. But fear not, because a burst of warmer weather is headed our way.
Unfortunately, this warm spell won't be accompanied by blue skies and sunshine. Instead, we can expect some rain to join the party. After a chilly and blustery weekend, parts of the UK are predicted to see a 10°C increase in temperatures in the middle of this week.
However, before we start planning our outdoor activities, it's important to note that our hopes for an Indian summer have been dampened. According to Met Office meteorologist Tom Morgan, the improved temperatures will be short-lived and replaced with wet and windy conditions.
So far, the forecast for Monday and Tuesday doesn't look too promising, with rain expected to make its way from the south west and move northwards. In fact, there could even be some thunderstorms on Tuesday, with parts of the western coast potentially seeing up to 70mm of rainfall, according to BBC Weather.
But don't lose hope just yet, because from Wednesday onwards, temperatures are expected to rise in the eastern parts of England, with some areas seeing highs of up to 22°C. Tom explains that these milder temperatures will be a welcome change from the chilly weather we experienced over the weekend.
He also mentions that there may be a "stark contrast" between Wednesday's warmer temperatures and the frosty nights we've been having. And while the warmth will be a nice change, it will also bring some rain and strong winds, especially in the west and Wales.
Thursday is shaping up to be a decent day, with the possibility of dry and sunny spells, along with a few scattered showers in the west. However, Friday is expected to bring strong winds and heavy rain across the rest of the country, leading to a rather unsettled weekend ahead.
So, while we may not be able to break out the sun loungers just yet, at least we can look forward to a brief period of warmer weather before autumn truly sets in. And who knows, maybe we'll even get a glimpse of those elusive 22°C temperatures in the east.
