AFTER a rather chilly start to the new month, we could be set for a week of rather warm weather for September. 

Temperatures are expected to be slightly above average for this time of year for much of the next week, with the forecast expected to stay dry and warm for many. 

On a few days, there could be some patchy rain in areas in the morning, as well as some misty and fog patches, but they are all expected to clear up by the afternoon, leaving many to enjoy sunny spells for the rest of the daylight hours. 

The Met Office says of Monday: "A misty morning for many, with patchy rain lingering on the Gower Peninsula, but soon turning dry and bright across the country. A warm afternoon with plenty of sunny spells. Maximum temperature 20 °C."

The outlook for Tuesday into the latter parts of the week are very similar, with the Met Office expecting it to stay "dry and settled" thanks to a section of high pressure bringing "periods of warm sunshine" during the day, but with some cooler nights with mist and fog in more rural areas.
