Residents in Kingswinford can expect a bright and warm day this Wednesday, 8 April 2026, as temperatures are forecast to reach 22°C. This unseasonably warm weather, provided by the Met Office, arrives with a caution for those sensitive to high pollen counts.

The expected high of 22°C is significantly warmer than the typical April daily average of 12°C. According to the Met Office, this could be the warmest weather at this stage of April since 2020. However, the warmth will be brief, as temperatures are expected to drop by approximately 10°C heading into Thursday, marking a return to cooler and more unsettled conditions.

Those planning to enjoy the sunshine should be aware that the region is currently under a very high pollen warning. Levels for birch, ash, and plane pollen are high, which may cause heightened symptoms for the more than 10 million people across the UK who suffer from hay fever.

Additionally, the Met Office notes that UV levels are currently moderate, ranging between level 3 and 5. Residents heading outdoors during the middle of the day are advised to wear sunscreen to protect their skin from the sun.
