Overview of hot weather over the next 6 to 15 days

Largely dry and settled weather at first, with a greater incidence of overnight and morning fogs than of late, perhaps with some early-season rural frosts. Probably turning more changeable through the period. Temperatures near or slightly below average at first, trending around average into early October.
