Today's Weather Forecast

Saturday 5th September Good morning. For Saturday, 5 September 2026, it’s a fairly gentle early-autumn day across the UK, with a good deal of dry weather around, though not wall-to-wall sunshine everywhere. The mildest conditions will be towards the south-east, where temperatures should reach around 21°C, with light to moderate winds and plenty of dry weather. Much of the Midlands, Wales, the south-west and eastern England will also stay largely dry, with highs generally between 19 and 20°C. Skies may often be rather cloudy, but there should be some brighter breaks at times, especially early and later in the day. Further north, it will feel a little fresher. Northern England and Scotland are looking cooler, with temperatures mostly in the high teens. There may be a touch of light drizzle in places, particularly across parts of Scotland and north-western England, though rainfall amounts look very small and many areas will miss it altogether. Winds will be more noticeable here, especially near western and north-eastern coastal areas, so it could feel a bit brisk if you’re out and about. Northern Ireland should have a mostly dry day too, with temperatures around 18°C and a moderate breeze. So, overall: a largely settled Saturday, best of the warmth in the south, a cooler and breezier feel further north, and just a little patchy drizzle here and there. A decent day for travel and outdoor plans, though a light jacket may be useful by the evening as temperatures slip back into the low to mid-teens.
