Today's Weather Forecast

Tuesday 29th September Good morning. This Tuesday, 29 September 2026, brings a very mixed autumn picture across the UK — quite warm in the south, cooler further north, and with rain becoming more of a feature in the west as the day goes on. Across the south-east, it’s a mild and fairly bright day, with some decent sunshine around the middle of the day and temperatures reaching the mid-20s in places. There may be a little patchy drizzle, but for many it should be more of a nuisance than anything too disruptive. Through the Midlands and parts of Wales, it’s a more changeable story. Early brightness gives way to cloudier skies, with outbreaks of rain or drizzle at times — especially across Wales during the morning. It will still feel quite mild, with highs in the low 20s, though a noticeable breeze may take the edge off. The south-west looks set for the wettest conditions later on. After a relatively mild day, rain is likely to turn heavier into the evening, accompanied by brisk winds around exposed coasts. If you’re travelling late in the day or heading out for the evening, it’s worth allowing extra time and taking waterproofs. Northern England sees quite a contrast: western areas should stay mostly dry and fairly mild, albeit breezy, while the north-east feels cooler, particularly first thing, with a distinctly autumnal chill. Temperatures there will be much lower than further south, and the breeze may make it feel fresher still. For Scotland, it’s generally dry but on the cool side, with variable cloud and some clearer spells. A brisk wind will be noticeable, and after a chilly start, daytime temperatures remain modest compared with the rest of the UK. Northern Ireland has a damp and blustery feel, with rain at times and highs in the upper teens. Not a complete washout, but certainly one of those days where the umbrella may earn its keep. So, in summary: warmest and brightest towards the south-east, wetter and windier in the west, and cooler across Scotland and north-eastern parts of England. A proper autumn mix — but still with a few pleasant bright windows if you catch the timing right.

Autumn leaves cling to the quay walls, gulls wheel low over choppy water, and the mood is damp but calm, realistic and unfantastical, with no text or watermarks.
