Kent braced for strong winds and temperature drop as autumnal weather sets in

Kent is set to experience downpours as blustery winds and more chilly autumnal weather sets in, bringing an end to the Summer.

The Met Office has said the south coast of England is predicted to see heavy showers to begin with before clouds take over.

On Monday the weather is expected to be more autumnal with sunny spells offset by showers and cloudy skies.

Alex Burkill, a meteorologist at the Met Office, said the change will indicate the move into autumn.

He said: “Early rain in the South will quickly clear and then behind that, otherwise, it’s going to be a blustery, showery day and feeling more autumnal than of late due to a cold north westerly breeze, which will be brisk at times.

“For many, it will be a showery day. There will be some sunny spells, but it will certainly feel colder than it has been.”

He added: “Monday night into Tuesday is going to be a chilly one, perhaps a touch of frost in most prone spots in the countryside.

“Through Tuesday, it’s looking similar to Monday for many as it will be blustery with some showers but also with some sunny spells and still feeling quite chilly.

“The winds will gradually start to ease as we go through Tuesday, so that means it may start to feel a little bit less cold. But overnight Tuesday night into Wednesday is probably going to be even chillier because we’re gonna have some clear skies."
