The UK is set to experience a prolonged period of dry and calm weather, with high pressure dominating the region. Following a wet and stormy end to October, the Environment Agency reported that England experienced its wettest week in two years due to Storms Austen and Boelo. However, with the return of high pressure, the UK can expect a spell of largely dry and calm conditions, with very little rain in sight. Mist and fog will remain a persistent feature, with some slow-clearing dense patches expected during the mornings. The high pressure system is expected to remain over the UK for at least 10 days, bringing a cooler feel to the region, particularly during the nights and early mornings. This settled weather pattern is expected to continue into early November, with little prospect of significant rainfall. While the current dry spell is a welcome relief, signs suggest that high pressure could loosen its hold around mid-November, allowing Atlantic low-pressure systems to approach the country and bring wetter and windier weather.
