Leeds weather: Hour-by-hour forecast as Met Office predict cloudy first Autumn weekend of the year

As we leave summer behind and enter September, Leeds prepare for colder and darker days once again.

Luckily, the Met Office weather forecast predicts a few more warmer days before mittens and scarves will have to come out of winter storage.

Today (Friday September 1), is likely to be the coldest day of the weekend, with cloudy skies set to dominate the forecast and temperatures not reaching above 17C.

On Saturday, however, the sun is likely to come out of the clouds for a few hours around midday, with degrees reaching around 21C at the most.

Sunday is once again forecast to be dominated by clouds and temperatures around 23C, but as the evening comes, the skies are expected to clear up and give way for a sunny next week.
