Tuesday 15th September Good morning. This Tuesday, 15 September 2026, brings a fairly mixed early autumn picture across the UK — mild for the time of year, but with a noticeable breeze and some rain around, especially in the north and west. The driest and brightest conditions are likely across the south-east, parts of the Midlands and eastern England, where temperatures should climb into the low twenties in places. There may be a fair amount of cloud at times, but many areas should stay largely dry, with some late brightness or clearer spells developing towards the evening. Further west, across Wales and the south-west, it’s a more changeable feel. A little patchy drizzle or light rain is possible, though totals look small, and there should be brighter breaks mixed in — particularly later in the day. It’ll feel pleasant enough when the sun appears, with highs around 19 or 20°C. Northern England has more of a split. Eastern coastal areas should see some decent dry and bright intervals, but further west there’s a greater chance of rain, including some heavier bursts at times, especially early on and again towards the evening. With gustier winds here too, it may feel rather brisk if you’re out and about. Scotland starts damp in places, particularly across central and eastern areas, with some rain around early in the day. Conditions should become more showery and broken as the day goes on, though the wind will remain a feature, making it feel cooler than the thermometer suggests. Highs are generally in the upper teens. Northern Ireland also sees a rather unsettled start, with rain early on and a breezy feel through the day. Brighter skies may return later, so the evening could look a little more encouraging after a soggy beginning. Overall, it’s a day to keep a light waterproof handy if you’re in the north or west, while southern and eastern parts get the best chance of a dry, mild September day. Winds will be noticeable around exposed and coastal areas, so travel conditions may feel a touch blustery at times.

A medieval manuscript illumination of a mild autumn morning on a Merseyside waterfront, wet cobbles gleaming after steady rain, brick warehouses and distant cranes softened by low grey cloud. Wind ruffles the river and bends sparse plane trees, while muted gold light catches puddles and damp stone; realistic UK architecture and weather, no text or watermarks.
