Residents in Cheshunt can expect a week of mild and changeable weather as temperatures climb above the typical April average, according to the latest data from the Met Office.
The forecast, updated at 7:09am on 14 April 2026, predicts temperatures will range between 6°C and 18°C throughout the week. While sunny intervals are expected to dominate, residents should prepare for some rainfall, specifically on Wednesday morning when there is a 90% chance of rain at 3am. Wednesday is set to be the warmest day of the week, with temperatures reaching a peak of 18°C, although conditions may feel closer to 14°C.
This period of warmer weather is part of a wider trend that has seen the UK experience its warmest start to April in 80 years. While the mild conditions are welcome, they have also contributed to high pollen levels across the region. With little rainfall expected to wash the air, these levels are forecast to remain high for most of the week, with the exception of Wednesday, which will see moderate levels, and Saturday, which is expected to have low levels.
With high pollen counts potentially affecting those prone to hay fever, residents planning to spend time outdoors may wish to prepare accordingly. Those who suffer from allergies are encouraged to consider taking antihistamines to manage symptoms during this period of elevated pollen activity.
