UK Weather

Friday 3rd October

Good morning, this Friday, 3rd October 2025, sees us well into the autumn season across the UK. Let’s take a cosy look at what the weather has in store.

In the south-east, a damp start to the day with rain lingering through much of the morning, tapering off as we head into the afternoon. Temperatures are fairly mild, peaking around the high teens, but you'll notice a brisk breeze which might make things feel a touch cooler, so a light jacket would be wise if you’re venturing out.

As we move up through the Midlands, a similar unsettled picture emerges with early downpours. The showers should ease by lunchtime, offering some respite. Winds are lighter here, so while it may be a grey day, it's not too blustery.

Further north in northern England, we've got an interesting mix; a drier start in some areas, but expect those clouds to thicken with rain making an appearance through the afternoon. The temperatures should climb nicely to the high teens, but it may feel a bit cooler in those gustier spells of wind.

Over in Wales and Northern Ireland, it’s a day calling for umbrellas, with frequent showers around much of the day. Those in Wales may find it particularly wet during the morning rush, while in Northern Ireland, watch for those blustery conditions accompanying the rain.

The south-west isn’t escaping the rain either, with steady showers through the early hours that should gradually thin out, leaving a dull yet calmer afternoon. Expect temperatures to hover comfortably around the mid-teens.

For our friends up in Scotland, keep your raincoats handy as brief dry spells mid-morning give way to showers again by the afternoon. Hold on to your hats as you’ll certainly feel the gusts, with winds being fairly robust throughout.

In summary, it’s a typical autumn day with plenty of showers across the board, but a few dry interludes here and there offer glimmers of hope. Best to plan activities accordingly, and perhaps keep the kettle on standby for when you’re back indoors! A lovely day to keep cosy and gather some warmth as we embrace the changing season.
