Milton Keynes in Buckinghamshire is set for a period of blustery and wet weather starting on Thursday, 12 March 2026, as a band of rain moves across the region. According to the Met Office, the area will see a significant shift from current conditions to much cooler and windier weather.

Forecasters expect wind gusts to reach up to 44 miles per hour on Thursday. This change in weather will also bring a noticeable drop in temperature, falling from a high of 13°C on Thursday to just 8°C by Friday, 13 March 2026.

Local residents and commuters are advised to prepare for potential travel disruptions caused by the windy and wet conditions throughout the day. People are also encouraged to secure any loose garden items that might be moved by the strong gusts.

It is recommended that drivers and those using public transport allow extra time for their journeys while the blustery conditions persist. The move to cooler and wetter weather follows a period of more stable conditions as the area enters the typical variability of the spring season.
