Remnants of ex-Hurricane Mellisa could affect the UK - London Business News | Londonlovesbusiness.com
"The Met Office has said that the UK is set for a spell of unsettled weather as we approach Halloween and the weekend. While much attention has been focused on Hurricane Melissa in the Atlantic, forecasters are also monitoring the potential development of another area of low pressure that could influence the UK's weather later in the week, the Met Office has said."
"This system, which is separate from Hurricane Melissa, may bring strong winds and outbreaks of rain, particularly to western parts of the country. The Met Office, working in partnership with Met Éireann and KNMI in the Netherlands, is closely tracking this developing system. At present, it does not appear likely to meet the criteria for a named storm, but the situation remains under review as new forecast model data becomes available."
"A bright and chilly start is expected on Thursday, before cloud and strengthening winds spread in from the west. Rain will develop across northern, western and central areas, becoming most persistent and occasionally heavy over parts of Northern Ireland and Scotland. Winds will increase, with coastal gales likely in western regions. Temperatures will be a little milder than on Wednesday."
The UK will see a spell of unsettled weather approaching Halloween and the weekend. Forecasters are monitoring a developing area of low pressure separate from Hurricane Melissa that could bring strong winds and outbreaks of rain, especially to western regions. The Met Office, working with Met Éireann and KNMI, is tracking the system. It currently appears unlikely to meet criteria for a named storm, but forecasts remain under review as new model data arrives. The jet stream will steer the low pressure toward the UK, bringing coastal gales, persistent heavy rain over Northern Ireland and Scotland, milder temperatures, and unsettled conditions for half-term.
