The UK is expected to have a varied weather pattern in September, with a mix of strong winds, showers, and occasional warm days, according to the Met Office. The month will likely be influenced by changeable conditions, with rain and gusty winds coming from the North Atlantic. Temperatures are expected to remain near seasonal averages, with some days in the south experiencing slightly higher temperatures. This mix of unsettled and drier weather will be a common feature across the country. Starting the month with relatively warm temperatures, the UK is set to see peaks of 21°C in London and 17°C in Glasgow. As September progresses, frontal systems from the Atlantic will bring varied conditions, especially in the northern and western parts of the country. According to Tony Wisson, Met Office Deputy Chief Forecaster, "September is expected to continue with a fairly mixed weather pattern. Temperatures are likely to be around or slightly above average, with areas of low pressure bringing more rain in the north and west, while the south and east may see drier conditions." Despite the generally changeable weather, the weekend saw relatively warm temperatures across the UK, with Monday expected to be even warmer. Highs of 25°C are predicted in London, 22°C in Manchester and Cardiff, and 21°C in parts of Scotland. While these temperatures are slightly above average, they offer a welcome break from the recent heat. This forecast follows the confirmation from the Met Office that the UK had its hottest summer on record, with five consecutive heatwaves from May to August. These extreme conditions led to widespread drought, record numbers of wildfires, and significant travel disruptions. The average temperature for June, July, and August was 16.5°C, surpassing the previous record of 16.1°C. The highest temperature recorded this summer was 38.1°C at Kew Gardens on 13 August.
