00:00Parts of the UK topped 22 degrees Celsius this week.
00:03Now, a much colder weekend is on the way.
00:06Northerly winds are bringing cooler air,
00:08with daytime temperatures expected to fall to around 10 to 16 degrees.
00:12That is much closer to normal for October.
00:15High pressure should bring plenty of brighter spells,
00:18although some northern and western areas could still see showers.
00:21After dark, temperatures will drop further.
00:24Mist, fog, and patchy frost are possible,
00:26with a few inland areas potentially falling below freezing.
00:30But the bigger weather change could come next week.
00:33Forecast models suggest Atlantic weather systems may return as high-pressure retreats.
00:38That could bring heavier rain, stronger winds,
00:41and potentially stormy conditions toward the end of the week.
00:44Rain would be welcome in drought-affected parts of England and Wales.
00:47However, the exact timing and strength of these systems remain uncertain.
00:52For now, expect a cooler weekend,
00:54with a possible wetter and windier change ahead.
