Met Office 10-day trend: Mild November continues as unsettled weather approaches

Met Office 10-day Trend: Mild November Continues Amid Approaching Unsettled Weather

As early November progresses, the UK is experiencing a notably mild period with temperatures significantly above the seasonal average. However, the Met Office’s latest 10-day outlook indicates that this calm and warm spell will soon give way to more unsettled and changeable weather as the new working week begins.

Jet Stream Influence on Weather Patterns

The current weather is influenced by a highly wavy jet stream over the Atlantic, creating alternating dips and troughs. One trough currently extends toward Iberia and is predicted to deepen over the coming days. This will keep low pressure anchored to the south and gradually move it toward the UK by the weekend.

"A weakening and amplifying jet stream is a key factor in the slow-moving weather patterns expected next week, setting up a contest between low pressure to the west and high pressure to the east of the UK."

By the weekend, another jet stream dip is forecast, forming a broader trough over the Atlantic. This dynamic is responsible for the slow progression of weather systems anticipated through next week.

Unseasonably Mild Temperatures

"Bonfire Night 2025 was record breaking 🎆 Temperatures overnight only dropped to 14."

This mild spell, while unusual for November, will likely come to an end as unsettled weather approaches.

Author’s Summary

The UK enjoys an unusually warm start to November, but shifting jet streams signal that more unsettled, changeable weather will soon replace the mild conditions.
