Cheshunt residents in Hertfordshire can expect weather conditions to settle this weekend following a week of heavy rain and wind. The Met Office predicts a mixture of sunshine and cloud between Friday 27 March and Sunday 29 March 2026.
Friday 27 March 2026 will start with light rain and highs of 12°C, but the weather is expected to clear by the evening. Saturday 28 March 2026 will begin with a frosty morning as temperatures drop to 2°C, making it feel like 0°C outdoors in the early hours. The day will see sunny intervals and a maximum temperature of 10°C, although there is a 50 per cent chance of light showers in the afternoon.
Sunday 29 March 2026 will start dry but overcast before rain arrives after 2pm. Wind speeds will remain noticeable throughout the weekend, with gusts reaching up to 35mph on Saturday and 34mph on Sunday.
The Environment Agency has confirmed that the flood risk for Hertfordshire is currently very low, despite high water levels in some local rivers. Because UV levels will be moderate, officials recommend that people planning outdoor activities use sun protection during the middle of the day.
The current weather pattern is typical for early spring, caused by different pressure systems moving across the country. This prevents long periods of settled weather but will offer several dry intervals for those heading outdoors.
