No sign of colder weather for weeks, says Met Office long-range forecast

The Met Office has pushed back the date it expects traditionally wintry weather to hit the UK. It's last long-range forecast had suggested snow was likely on higher ground this month, but the forecasting body now thinks the milder weather will only start to change in very late November and early December.

Despite being wet and windy, it has been a very mild start to November, and southerly winds will bring exceptionally mild air back again later in the week. The Met Office is forecasting that temperatures will widely be 4 to 7°C above the seasonal average by Friday.

Wales could see highs of 17°C on Armistice Day, with some parts of the UK seeing temperatures in the teens overnight. BBC Weather says temperatures on Tuesday will be a little above average but it’ll turn very mild by Thursday with highs of 16/17°C and overnight lows of 14/15°C.
