    Read excerpt

    Changeable autumnal conditions are set to continue through this coming week, with spells of wetter and windier weather developing at times.

A strengthening jet stream will bring deeper, low-pressure systems as the week goes on, with the potential for minor disruption towards next weekend.

    UK weather: Parts of country to get break in heatwave but dry spell to continue (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Cooler temperatures are on the way for some parts of the UK after a first half of summer dominated by warm, sunny and largely dry weather. Parts of England have experienced more than two weeks of heatwave conditions, and some central areas have had the longest dry spell since 1997. But the third heatwave of 2026 is now easing as northerly winds introduce some fresher air - although most places still won't have any significant rainfall.
