Residents in Swadlincote can expect a contrast in weather conditions this weekend, with Saturday providing a warm, sunny break before cooler, windier weather arrives on Sunday, according to the Met Office.
Saturday, 9 May 2026, is set to be the warmer of the two days, reaching highs of 19°C with sunny intervals. While wind gusts may reach up to 26mph, it will still feel like a pleasant 16°C, making it a good opportunity to visit local outdoor spaces like Swadlincote Woodlands or Eureka Park.
Conditions will shift on Sunday, 10 May 2026, as temperatures drop to 14°C. Stronger winds with gusts of up to 30mph are expected to make it feel significantly colder, closer to 10°C, throughout the day.
Because UV levels are expected to be moderate across both days, the national weather service advises residents to wear sunscreen, particularly during the middle of the day. The forecast, which was updated at 3:41am on 8 May 2026, notes that Saturday’s high of 19°C is notably warmer than the usual average for this time of year in Derbyshire.
