Default Dry October

seems to be on the cards looking at the Met O outlook. Not sure I like
the 'frequent frosts' bit...

UK Outlook for Saturday 1 Oct 2011 to Saturday 15 Oct 2011:

Indications are that the first half of October will see rather cool but
bright conditions across much of the UK except far northern areas, which
may have temperatures nearer normal. In particular, nights across the
Midlands and southeast could be see temperatures dropping well below
normal with frequent frosts. However the cool conditions will be
mitigated by day by sunnier than normal weather, with the far south and
far north possibly seeing well above normal amounts of sunshine.
Correspondingly rainfall is likely to be below average in most areas,
especially the in the west.

What's wrong with 'frequent frosts' in October?
Sound like wonderful autumn weather to me, crisp cold
mornings, but warming nicely during the day. Leaves
fluttering gently down with an air of mellow fruitfulness......

You are right Col, but I just thought of getting up and scraping
windscreens to go to work... retirement soon!

It may mean putting the heating on earlier than normal which means
higher energy bills on top of the energy price rises we've seen over the
last year or two.

Heating? In October? :-O

Well I guess if we get regular maxes less than 5C (unlikely) it will go on,
but I will relish the cool night air wafting into the bedroom and that
lovely cool house in the morning putting on our thick jerseys to go down for
breakfast. Magic after the heat of summer.

Energy companies hate me LOL.

I hope that your wife feels the same way!

Well I don't put it on until November, but I was thinking more of the
average member of the population who would put it on mid October. Frail
elderly people might need to put it on now.

If the temp in your house is down in the single figures how do you deal
with condensation?
