Residents in Royal Leamington Spa are set for a brief spell of warm weather this week following a frosty start to Monday morning. After early temperatures dropped between 1.4°C and 2.6°C, the Met Office expects conditions to improve significantly before turning unsettled again towards the weekend.
Temperatures are forecast to climb steadily throughout the next few days. While Monday reached 15°C, the mercury is expected to rise further to 20°C on Tuesday and peak at 22°C on Wednesday. This forecast is notably warmer than the typical April average high of 14°C for the area.
The warm weather follows the recent disruption caused by Storm Dave, which brought snow, wind, and rain over the Easter Bank Holiday weekend. Although the current high-pressure system is providing a calmer period, residents should be aware that the Met Office has issued a “Very High” warning for birch pollen and a “High” warning for ash pollen, which may affect those prone to hay fever.
Conditions are expected to change significantly from Thursday 9 April. The forecast indicates the arrival of light showers and cooler temperatures dropping to around 14°C, accompanied by wind gusts of up to 34mph. The remainder of the weekend will see continued cloudy weather and further scattered showers, with daytime temperatures hovering between 13°C and 14°C.
Looking ahead, the long-range forecast suggests a period of unsettled weather will persist through mid-April as Atlantic weather systems bring further spells of rain and showers to the region.
