Residents in Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, should prepare for a mild but unsettled weekend on February 21 and 22, 2026, as high winds and heavy rain move across the area.

The Met Office predicts daytime temperatures will reach 13°C, which is considered mild for this time of year. Rain is likely to start after 3:00 pm on Saturday, with the chance of downpours rising to 90 per cent by 5:00 pm.

Maximum wind gusts could reach 31 miles per hour on both days, and general flood warnings are in effect across England according to the latest weather reports. These breezy conditions may cause travel delays for those attending the final performances of Diversity at the Milton Keynes Theatre.

On Sunday, February 22, 2026, rain is forecast to clear early in the morning followed by sunny intervals in the afternoon. The improved weather later in the day will benefit participants in the Winter Warmer Run and others with outdoor plans.
