Remnants of Hurricane Isaias to bring warm weather to Norfolk

Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 13 Oct, 09:32 · Archive

Temperatures across Norfolk will reach the low 20s this week, driven by remnants of Hurricane Isaias crossing the Atlantic.

Temperatures are expected to climb across Norfolk this week as the remnants of Hurricane Isaias help funnel warm air towards the UK, forecasters say. The low-pressure system is merging with another area of low pressure from Canada before passing near Iceland by midweek. Daytime temperatures will reach the low 20s, well above the average for this time of year.

Highs of 23C are possible in parts of East Anglia. Thetford and Attleborough will see a high of 21C on Thursday, as will Great Yarmouth, Gorleston, Norwich and Downham Market. The north Norfolk coast will be slightly cooler, with Cromer and Sheringham peaking at 20C on Thursday.

The warm spell will be accompanied by unsettled weather, with rain expected at times across much of the UK. However, the Met Office said rainfall totals are not expected to be sufficient to ease ongoing drought conditions in some areas. A shift to cooler, drier conditions is expected after the front passes, as high pressure builds into Friday and the weekend.
