People in Watford, Hertfordshire, should prepare for a change in the weather this Sunday, 15 March 2026, as rain and strong winds are set to arrive. The Met Office expects a dry start to the day before conditions turn unsettled during the afternoon.

Wind gusts in the town could reach up to 31mph as the weather system moves in from the west. The chance of rain will increase throughout the day, with a 30 to 50 per cent chance in the afternoon rising to 70 per cent by the evening.

This shift marks a notable change from the mostly dry and bright weather # forecast for Saturday. The incoming rain is expected to lead into a cooler period for the start of the new week.

Monday and Tuesday are likely to remain mostly cloudy with further showers following the initial front. Residents planning outdoor activities for the end of the weekend may need to make alternative arrangements as the region moves into this more variable spell.
