Bloxwich residents can look forward to a mostly warm and dry week ahead, though conditions will turn notably windy by mid-week according to the latest forecast from the Met Office.
The week will see temperatures climb steadily, reaching a peak of 21°C this Friday. While the majority of the week is expected to be clear and settled, Tuesday is the only day with a notable risk of rain, particularly in the early morning. Residents planning outdoor activities should take note that UV levels are expected to remain at a moderate level throughout the week, and the Met Office advises the use of sunscreen during peak midday hours.
Those with hay fever should prepare for fluctuating conditions. Pollen levels are high today, Monday, before dropping to a low level on Tuesday. However, the high levels of oak pollen are set to return from Wednesday through Friday. This year’s pollen season has arrived earlier than usual across the Midlands, following warmer spring temperatures.
Windy weather will become a factor as the week progresses. Wednesday, 29 April, is expected to be particularly gusty, with wind speeds reaching up to 37mph from midday onwards. Residents planning to cycle or spend time in the garden may want to keep these stronger winds in mind when making their plans for the middle of the week.
