Residents in Northampton can look forward to a warm and dry weekend as a high-pressure system brings settled weather to the area. According to the Met Office, the pleasant conditions are expected to continue through the weekend, providing an ideal window for outdoor plans.
Saturday 25 April will begin with a cold, foggy start where temperatures could drop as low as 2°C. While the thermometer may show this figure, calm conditions and high humidity will make it feel closer to 1°C in the early morning hours. Conditions are expected to clear quickly, leading to a sunny day with temperatures reaching a high of 19°C in Northampton, though regional temperatures in the East Midlands could climb as high as 20°C.
Those planning to spend time outside should be aware that while air pollution levels are forecast to remain low, pollen levels are expected to be moderate to high.

Residents should prepare for a risk of showers on Monday, followed by stronger winds of up to 30mph on Wednesday 29 April.
