July
July too starts on an unsettled note, with some rain around, but Summer will emerge, and we can expect some decent drier spells and some warm to very warm temperatures. Through mid-month, there may well be a continuation of the warm, settled weather, good spells of sunshine with just light winds, but towards the end of July things will breakdown a little, with thunderstorms developing, possibly leading to some flash flooding. It will begin to feel humid too by late month, so expect the thunderstorms to rumble on a while. July will reflect a warmer than average month.
August
August starts unsettled too with some thunderstorm activity, but this will break, and some more fine weather will emerge, and with some lovely unbroken sunshine, we may well see some record temperatures. Towards mid month, there will still be some pleasant weather around with long spells of sunshine, but this will be broken up with periods of unsettled weather. It will remain warm through the middle part of August. The latter part of the month again sees some good weather, but this will be short lived, as more showery and cooler conditions move in. August will reflect a warmer than average month.

Autumn 2010
September
An unsettled start to the month with a mixture of dry weather, but also some showers or longer spells of rain around. It is possible to see temperatures still on the warm side at the start of September, but this will be short lived. By mid month, Atlantic weather fronts will take hold, meaning a run of unsettled weather with some wet and windy conditions, possibly quite stormy. By the latter part of the month, the wet and windy weather will continue to dominate, which may lead to flooding problems in some areas. Across the month though, temperatures will on or around the average, with rainfall for the bulk of the UK on the average. Northwestern parts probably seeing above average rainfall, on the average elsewhere.
October
October starts on an unsettled note, but it will quickly settle down, and turn a lot more settled. Temperatures on or around the average at the start of October. By mid month, the dry and settled weather will still be very much in evidence, with some pleasant autumn sunshine. Temperatures again, around where they should be for the time of year. There will be no sign of any significant rainfall as October continues, so expect a dry end to the month with further spells of sunshine, and average values temperature wise. Particularly dry to the north and west, slightly less so to the south and east. Over all, a very dry month, with temperatures on the average.
November
An unsettled start to the month as once again, the Atlantic takes hold of our weather, so expect a wet and windy phase of weather, possible stormy. Temperatures will start on and slightly above average. By mid month, things will continue rather wet, so flooding may well be a possibility, accompanied by some strong winds. Temperatures again, on or slightly above the average. Despite some drier and brighter days throughout November, the month generally ends on a wet note, but with signs of improvement into December, with temperatures showing the same pattern. Over all, average to above average rainfall for many areas, but a milder than average month, especially for Wales and southern England.
As far as Winter 2010/11 goes, a very good percentage is showing for a 'White Christmas' and we expect this coming Winter to be as brutal as last year's, which we predicted very accurately indeed, right down to the prolonged cold temperatures extending into March. |
