Residents in Telford can expect a shift toward warmer weather this week as temperatures climb above the typical seasonal average, according to the Met Office.
While the week is forecast to be changeable, daytime highs are expected to reach 15°C on Wednesday 15 April and 16°C on Friday 17 April. These temperatures are warmer than the usual mid-April average of 12°C for the area. Overnight temperatures are also set to remain milder than in recent weeks, staying above freezing at around 8°C.
The week begins with varied conditions, as cloud and rain move into Telford from the west on Tuesday 14 April. Wednesday is expected to be breezy and wet, though residents can look forward to brighter conditions returning by Thursday. Looking ahead, early long-range forecasts suggest that temperatures across the UK will likely remain above average through at least 27 April.
With the arrival of warmer weather, health officials advise residents to be mindful of current environmental conditions. Pollen levels for birch are currently rated as high, and ultraviolet levels are at a moderate level, meaning that sunscreen protection is recommended for those spending time outdoors during the middle of the day.
