Residents in Peterborough should prepare for a mix of wet and windy conditions this weekend, followed by an increase in temperatures next week. According to the Met Office, no formal weather warnings have been issued for the area.
Saturday 11 April is expected to start with rain, particularly during the morning. The chance of precipitation peaks at 60 per cent around 10am. Alongside the rain, strong wind gusts reaching up to 36mph are forecast, which may make the air feel closer to 9°C despite a maximum temperature of 13°C. Conditions are expected to improve later in the day, transitioning into sunny spells and isolated showers.
Sunday 12 April will be brighter with sunny intervals and lighter winds, with gusts predicted to reach 30mph and temperatures climbing to 15°C. The trend of warmer weather will continue into the new week, with temperatures reaching 18°C by Thursday 16 April.
While the weather will be more settled, those who suffer from hay fever should take precautions. High pollen levels, specifically high birch pollen and moderate ash pollen, are expected to persist through the weekend. Met Office Senior Scientist Lucy Neal noted that the rise in pollen levels is a result of the warm, dry and sunny weather, combined with light to moderate breezes.
