According to the Met Office, daytime temperatures are forecast to range between 13°C and 15°C through Saturday 16 May, with Sunday reaching 16°C, falling short of the usual 16°C to 17°C often seen at this time of year.

Despite the unsettled conditions, UV levels are forecast to be high on Monday and Wednesday. The Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, which provides air quality data, suggests that air pollution levels will remain low throughout the week, making conditions suitable for most outdoor activities. Residents are advised to seek shade during the middle of the day and use sunscreen on high UV days.
Those sensitive to allergens will find some relief, as pollen levels are currently low across all species, with only early season grass pollen present. While the week will see variable weather, residents can still find intervals of drier conditions between the periods of rain.
