Residents in Blackpool, Lancashire, can expect warm and sunny spring weather to last through the rest of the working week after a chilly start on 19 March 2026. Daytime high temperatures are predicted to reach up to 18°C today, providing a dry and bright break for the local community.

The Met Office has confirmed that these pleasant conditions will continue with plenty of sunshine on Friday, 20 March 2026. This period of dry weather offers a significant change from the typical cool and wet conditions often seen on the North West coast during this time of year.

However, the sunny spell is not expected to last into next week as the weather becomes more unsettled over the weekend. Starting from 22 March 2026, the region will see a transition to cloudier and cooler skies with more changeable conditions moving in.

While the temperatures will start to feel cooler by day from Sunday onwards, the current warmth provides a good opportunity for outdoor activities and local tourism. Residents are encouraged to enjoy the clear skies while the dry weather remains in place across the town.
