Residents of Royal Tunbridge Wells can expect a shift to warmer and more settled spring conditions this week, following a windy and wet start to the weekend. According to the Met Office, the unsettled weather brought by Storm Dave will clear by Sunday afternoon, making way for a significant rise in temperatures by midweek.
Saturday in the town brings a maximum temperature of 14°C, with light rain likely in the morning and wind gusts reaching 39mph. While Storm Dave is causing severe disruption across northern Britain with damaging winds and snow, southern England will see more settled weather take hold as the weekend progresses.
The new week will begin with a chilly start, as temperatures are expected to drop to 1°C on Monday morning. However, the weather will improve as the week continues, with prolonged sunshine and rising temperatures. Forecasts show the town reaching 18°C on Tuesday, 7 April, and 20°C by Wednesday, 8 April, with a less than 5% chance of rain on those days.
Those who suffer from hay fever should be aware that pollen levels are expected to be very high from Sunday through Tuesday. Beyond the middle of the week, the national weather service expects conditions to remain changeable with occasional rain, though temperatures are likely to stay around or slightly above average for the time of year.
