Slack areas of low pressure often give some of the best weather right
on the coast, esp in September, when they often (as today) have
imported some warm humid air.

How about in early October, as that's when I'll be in your neck of the
woods?

Well, it changes through October.

During the 1st few days the same sort of thing applies. E.g 2nd Oct
2003 saw a completely dry, warm day with sunny periods & a max of
20.1C. Perhaps not what you might expect from the synoptic chart

However, in October there are 2 factors which make this sort of thing
less likely.

1. Slack areas of low pressure are less common than in September.
2. If you look at the SW rainfall radar for the last 2 days, the
showers over the sea largely disappear by mid morning, as they
develop inland. With the 'weaker' sun, the showers are not so keen to
migrate inland, instead they have a tendency to persist near windward
coasts, especially in the 2nd half of the month.

The email address was OK by the way - I'll get back to you.
