Forecast updated 2026 October Saturday 24th Last week’s forecast was 98% Accurate :- (timing/tracking)  

UPCOMING WEATHER INFO-:  /Well, well last weeks forecast 98% and with the said two named storms for the UK Austin, and now Boelo. Models had been practically spot on that far out, mind you I do use esembles if there is some discrepencies. Ok what are the models indicating for this forecast?, well plenty of rain and wind with Gales, but just possible of High pressure build later midweek! But there is one snag, we have a Tropical Rainstorm in the Atlantic named Josephine and she could put all this out? Ok lets get to work and put this into a more daily detail below.  Please Conserve Water!!! I do not change these daily ahead forecasts. This gives you an idea of the possible out comes for that day. That is the reason I do a daily update on top of this page throughout the week. 

Next Week’s Forecast Starting Sunday October 25th 

Sunday /A generally dry day expected with fleeting sunny spells as cloud will be about, cannot rule out a shower, wind fresh to strong/Gale W, Temp 13/10ºC evening dry with wind abating for a time before increasing once again to strong/Gale with cloud increasing with possible heavy rain early hours!!!  Please Conserve Water!

Monday /Cloudy with rain, some of which will be heavy before clearing midday onwards to brighter conditions with fleeting sunny spells and scattered blustery showers, wind fresh to strong/Gale S/SW, Temp 15/11 evening cloud once again increasing with possible rain late early evening, windy!!! Please Conserve Water! 

Tuesday / Cloudy with some heavy rain to start with, this clearing well before midday to brighter and drier conditions with good sunny spells as cloud breaks up well, wind strong to Gale force SW/W and abating quickly, Temp 14/10ºC evening dry!!! Please Conserve Water!

Wednesday / A dry day expected with good sunny spells, these may become hazy at times due to high thin cloud moving over, wind light to moderate, locally fresh SW, Temp 15/11ºC evening dry!!!Please Conserve Water!

*Thursday/A dry start wih sunny conditions, but possible high thin cloud moves over before lowering cloud moves over, with just the off chance of a drizzly/light rain shower, wind light and incresing to fresh/strong S, Temp 14/13ºC evening generally dry, but cannot rule out some drizzly showers, also some mist/fog patches roaming around!!! Please Conserve Water!

*Friday /Cloudy with some possible rain, this looks to become showery with possible breaks allowing for sunny spells, wind moderate to fresh locally strong S and becoming a variable W and abating, Temp 15/8ºC evening dry!!!  Please Conserve Water!

Confidence 80%. /Well Josephine has put a spanner in the works, model runs  not in agreement on Friday? but stills some windy conditions prevailing till early Wednesday when we could see a respite! Ok what’s the outlook? Ok the GFS goes for an unsettled period, on the otherhand  the ECMWF goes for a settled period. Which one is right? Whatever the weather you have a great week!!!  Oh yes beware of the clocks going back one hour this Sunday early hours!!!  Please Conserve Water!!! Remember any Showers/Thunderstorms forecasted, some places will not get them and will remain dry.

News/Tropical Named Storms: October Saturday 24th  Active Major storms at this moment in time!!!/ (5)East China Sea-(0)  East Pacific Ocean-(1) Vance (Hurricane – Category 2), approximately 748 km from Manzanillo Mexico. Pacific Ocean– Solomon Sea (0) West Pacific Ocean/Philippine sea-(2) In-Fa(Tropical Storm), approximately 224 km from Kwajalein, Champi (Severe Tropical Storm), approximately 390 km from Kadena Ab Indian Ocean –ARAFURA SEA(1)Agueda (Tropical Depression), approximately 813 km from Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania. South Atlantic Ocean-(0) Tropical Atlantic-(0)  North Atlantic/UK (1) Josephine (Tropical Rainstorm), approximately 378 km from Nantucket Massachusetts.

Around October 12–13, the Southern Taurids will reach an early peak, producing about 5 meteors per hour under ideal conditions. Their hourly rate is modest, but the Taurids are known for slow, bright meteors and occasional fireballs.The shower remains active for weeks and is better known for its later peak in November, but this October maximum also offers a good chance to spot Taurid meteors. In 2026, it comes just after the New Moon, so moonlight will barely interfere.

Please try and conserve water!!! Another one subject I have added is if you are a Meteor fanatic then go to the link that is below, it will take you to the Hawaii observatory 14000ft up. Some really good views! providing cloud cover hasn’t ruined it.  Mother nature really letting Humans know about her, and what she can do weather wise, and Tectonic wise.  Over populating the Earth and destroying the vast amounts of forests, and polluting the rivers, seas. Us Humans beware, we are being warned yet again!!!  I have put another website link at the bottom for the Northern lights. Fantastic to watch when you have clear skies that is!!! as well as shooting stars.  People laugh at these weather/eruption events, I would say don’t be fooled, Mother Nature will in one way or another affect you!!! and may even harm you if you do not respect her!!! Earthquakes & Volcanoes  are always on the go. Here is a link to the world live Volcano cams. (1988) afarTV – YouTube.Also this link will take you to the direct camera in Iceland that does different live shots. ???? Live Now: 24/7 Iceland Volcano Watch (Multi-cams)

Do you want to see Meteor named showers live. Then this is the best observatory in the world to look at them as we move through space. Best time for this is from 0900am as Hawaii goes in to darkness. The telescope is at a height of 13800 ft. It is a great sight to see. Here is the link. Observatory View Live Camera – Mauna Kea, Hawaii, USA    Enjoy.

 Just a reminder the PV resides in the Stratosphere, and the JS in the Troposphere.

PV= Polar vortex, JS= Jet Stream, SSW= Sudden Stratosphere Warming.

Long Range Weather Forecasts (Autumn forecast being generated)

Oct: On current model outputs it looks for the start of the month that changeable conditions will be in place, with some dry and sunny conditions, albeit hazy due to high thin cloud being plentiful! As High presure looks to dominate nearby or over our air space, one or two windy periods expected as Lows try to move E against the E blocking highs! and it looks to be on the very mild/warm side at times! as for the whole month just possible turning more unsettled with some chances of windy conditions with heavy thundery rains with drier and much cooler conditions. Note that at this moment in time we have two disturbances in the Atlantic that could throw out this expected forecast!!! Confidence 45% correctness for the month so far 45%. Issued September 26th  2026

Nov: The month could on current model runs possibly start with High pressure in situ and build introducing some dry and cold days with mist/fog and frost about, just possibly the high moves slightly W ward allowing some frontal systems moving over the top of the high as we head toward mid month allowing for them to move S/SE introducing cloudy conditions, but the High once again could ridge back E/N/NE ward allowing for much colder air to move down for a time! going for the second half of the month high pressure trying to hold position, but the Atlantic trying to get in on the act, with the possibility of interactions of cold & mild temperatures throughout the rest of the month making for some winteryness spells. Confidence 50% correctness for the month so far 0%. Issued October 22nd  2026
