Residents in Wolverhampton can look forward to a warm and sunny weekend as temperatures are expected to climb significantly above the usual average for late April. According to the Met Office, the area will experience clear conditions, with thermometers reaching a peak of 20°C on both Saturday 25 April and Sunday 26 April 2026.

The warm spell is being driven by a high-pressure system that has remained dominant across the UK, bringing largely dry and fine weather. While Saturday is expected to be a bright, sunny day, Sunday will feature a mix of sun and clouds, with a 20% chance of rain forecast for 5pm.

While the weather is warmer than the typical 13°C daytime average for this time of year, officials are advising residents to take care during the middle of the day. The Met Office indicates that UV levels will be moderate, and sunscreen is recommended for those spending time outdoors.

Those planning to be outside should also be aware of high pollen levels across the West Midlands. The dry conditions have allowed oak pollen concentrations to build, and residents with allergies may want to take precautions as these levels are expected to remain high for several days. There are currently no weather warnings in force for the region.
