Residents in Southend-on-Sea can look forward to a week of largely dry and increasingly sunny weather, according to the latest forecast from the Met Office.
The week begins on Monday 20 April with cooler temperatures of 12°C and a chance of rain in the afternoon. However, conditions are set to improve significantly by Tuesday, with temperatures climbing to a steady 15°C from Wednesday through Sunday. These temperatures are generally in line or slightly warmer than the typical April average for the area.
The forecast predicts minimal rainfall, with the probability dropping to below five per cent from Wednesday to Friday. While the region will see some variable cloud, afternoons are expected to become increasingly sunny. Residents planning to visit local attractions, such as the world-famous Southend Pier, Adventure Island, or the area’s seven miles of beaches, should be prepared for breezy conditions.
Throughout the week, the area will experience moderate ultraviolet levels and low air pollution. While daytime highs will reach 15°C, those spending time near the seafront may find it noticeably cooler than inland areas.
