Residents in Fleet, Hampshire, are expected to experience unusually mild weather peaking on Wednesday before rain and strong wind gusts arrive later this week to disrupt travel and outdoor plans.
According to the Met Office, daytime temperatures will reach a high of 15 degrees Celsius on Wednesday, February 25, 2026. This is significantly warmer than the average February high of 8 degrees Celsius recorded by Weather Spark.
The weather is forecast to turn on Thursday, February 26, 2026, with a 70 per cent chance of light rain by the evening. Wind gusts are expected to reach 34 miles per hour on Friday, which experts at Prestone warn can make vehicle handling difficult on exposed roads like the M3.
This unsettled weather coincides with the return to school for most local children, although Fleet Infant School has a teacher training day on Monday, February 23, 2026. Commuters and parents are advised to allow extra time for journeys as wet roads and high winds can cause slower travel and slippery pavements.
