Wolverhampton is set for a predominantly dry and sunny week as high pressure remains in place, according to the Met Office. Residents can look forward to warmer conditions as the week progresses, though chilly nights mean a jacket will likely be necessary for evening outings.
Monday will see temperatures reach 19°C with sunny intervals, though there is a 60 per cent chance of light showers by 7pm. Tuesday will be cooler and overcast with a high of 15°C. Conditions are expected to brighten mid-week, with Wednesday reaching 18°C and Thursday becoming the warmest day of the week at 21°C.
While the sunshine will be welcome, the Met Office warns that pollen levels will be high for most of the week due to the ongoing birch and oak pollen seasons. Hay fever sufferers should take note, as only Tuesday is expected to have low pollen levels.
Those planning to be outdoors on Wednesday and Thursday should be aware of breezy conditions. Wind gusts are expected to reach up to 37mph on Wednesday and 33mph on Thursday, which may make the air feel significantly cooler than the actual temperature. Nighttime temperatures throughout the week will remain low, dipping to between 5°C and 8°C.
The current period of settled, dry weather is expected to continue through the end of April and into early May as high pressure remains near the UK, before more changeable conditions arrive later in the month.
