AUTUMN is on its way - though the week will be mild there will certainly be a chill in the air as we head towards October. 

The mild and mostly pleasant weather we saw last week is likely to stick with us through the coming few days. 

Temperatures will remain tepid, reaching highs of around 20-21C during the day but dropping to the low teens by nightfall. 

This week we will see night becoming ever-darker with the sun setting from 6.56pm by Sunday. 

Bournemouth-based weather enthusiast said that we can expect similar weather to last week, mild throughout the day changing to chilly by the evening. 

This week's forecast:

Monday, 20 September: 21°C / Sunny

Tuesday, 21 September: 20°C / Sunny changing to cloudy by the afternoon

Wednesday, 22 September: 19°C / Mist changing to sunny intervals by late morning
