After a stormy week, the Met Office has predicted weather will return back to what we’d normally expect at this time of year.

Met Office’s meteorologist Greg Dewhurst said the weather is now returning to ‘typical end of November’ – meaning some areas might even see a glimpse of the sun.

He said: ‘Conall pulled away early lunchtime (on Wednesday), and is now rapidly deepening – there’s quite an intense storm as it pushes into the Netherlands.

‘That’s all clearing now UK-wise, and allowing high pressure to build in from the north at the moment, so it’s getting drier, quite clear as well.’

Over the coming days, the eastern regions will see a brighter and drier sky while it will be cloudier in the west.

Today’s temperatures will be generally bright and cold – around 9C to 10C in western parts of the country and slightly lower at 6C to 7C in the east.

What about the weekend?

The weather is expected to be slightly breezier over the weekend and spells of rain will be mostly contained in the northern and western parts of the UK. However, some showery rain might reach southeastern areas by Sunday.

Dewhurst added: ‘Overall, it looks this weather pattern will continue with weather fronts coming in from the Atlantic, but largely affecting the north and the west – occasional spells of rain in the south-east, but temperatures near average really.’
