Local Summary for the next five days: The next five days sees a change away from the quiet autumn weather we have been having to something more like autumns of old. That said apart from the rain we won't be really effected by Storm Austen. The following storm, storm Boelo arrives later Saturday and Sunday provides further windy weather which may hit 50mph plus. Some welcome rain yes. This is followed by another powerful system on Monday. This isn't unnamed at present but it brings another spell of wind and rain. So the leaves are likely to get blown off and despite the winds not being too high there's a chance that trees weakened by drought may shred some larger branches. Monday sees a recovery in the temperatures bringing a very mild night to the party. The weather system bringing further welcome rain later in the day after a morning of sunny spells. Turning windy Friday afternoon as the first Autumn storm gives us a glancing blow. The weekend starting dry but more rain and windy conditions for later Saturday and Sunday. A rinse and repeat for Monday by a change of wind direction to a more southerly direction means we will miss out of the strongest winds. Temperatures below average by day until Monday when they become average. At night hovering either side of average but turning very mild Monday night. Tuesday starts windy with showery rain but the winds and showers easing through the day.
