Residents in Crawley should prepare for a week of unsettled and cooler weather as conditions shift following the recent Bank Holiday weekend. The Met Office reports a notable change in the local forecast, with temperatures expected to range between 13°C and 19°C over the coming days.
Wednesday is set to be the coolest day of the week, with temperatures reaching only 13°C under steady cloud cover. While Crawley remains free of any official weather warnings, the forecast indicates an increased likelihood of afternoon showers throughout the week, with peak rain probability reaching 40% on Tuesday, Saturday, and Sunday. Tuesday will also see cloud cover increase significantly as the evening approaches.
This turn in the weather follows a period of unseasonably warm temperatures seen elsewhere in the UK earlier this week. As many residents finish their travel plans, the RAC motoring group noted that this Bank Holiday period was expected to be the busiest on the nation’s roads in 10 years. Those venturing outdoors this week can expect variable conditions, though pollen levels are forecast to remain low.
Looking further ahead, the Met Office indicates that the changeable theme is likely to continue into mid-May. While there is a high degree of uncertainty in the long-term outlook, residents should anticipate generally unsettled weather with a continued risk of rain or showers across the south and east of England.
