Temperatures across the region remain above average at the start of the week, but a shift to wetter weather is expected to arrive later this week, according to a recent BBC Science weather update.
The current warmth is part of a late‑September trend that has kept many areas warmer than the long‑term average. While the heat has persisted, meteorologists warn that the pattern is likely to change soon.
Wind and rain are forecast to return later in the week, bringing a noticeable drop in temperatures and increased precipitation for some areas. The change is expected to bring relief to regions that have experienced a dry spell.
Local authorities are monitoring the situation and advising residents to prepare for the incoming weather, especially those in vulnerable or flood‑prone locations.
As the week progresses, the weather is likely to move from the current warmth to a more typical late‑September pattern of cooler temperatures and increased rainfall.
