Sandy Park (Devon) weather

Headline:

Today:

Tonight:

An increasingly wet evening across Cornwall and Devon with the rain spreading east to the rest of the region overnight. Turning milder and breezier in the west. Minimum temperature 6 °C.

Monday:

After a damp start with drizzle and outbreaks of rain, turning drier through the morning although staying mainly cloudy. Sunnier spells are possible during the afternoon and feeling milder. Maximum temperature 17 °C.

Outlook for Tuesday to Thursday:

A murky start on Tuesday, then showers arriving, mostly in the west. Rain at times on Wednesday and Thursday, this likely heavy in places. Turning much milder than of late.

Through the second half of next week conditions will be very unsettled with rain affecting most regions at times. The heaviest rain is likely to be in the west or southwest to begin with, but later in the week, the focus probably shifting to central and eastern areas. Following the rain, a drier and brighter interlude is probable, before conditions turn unsettled once again by next weekend. However, most of the rain, showers and strong winds are likely to be in the northwest with southeastern areas often dry and bright. Temperatures will be above average and probably feeling warm in the brighter spells. Later in October, there is a chance of more settled conditions developing, but with temperatures falling closer to average and some overnight frost and fog.

Potentially some wet and windy weather at first, especially in the northwest, but a trend towards more settled conditions is most favoured for late October as high pressure becomes increasingly dominant. This would bring the potential for frost and fog at night, and possibly large variations between daytime and overnight temperatures. Into early November, high pressure may become more centred to the northwest of the UK, resulting in a gradual trend towards more unsettled conditions, particularly across southern regions.
