THE bank holiday weekend weather for the West Midlands region looks set to be a mixed picture, according to the Met Office.
While high-pressure has brought some dry, fine weather and some sunny spells in recent days – a low-pressure system will introduce cloud and outbreaks of rain in the as the weekend progresses.
The outlook for Saturday is sunny to start – changing to cloudy by lunchtime, with maximum temperatures of 14°C.
On Sunday light rain is forecast – changing to overcast in the afternoon, with temperatures getting up to 12°C.
While Monday is expected to be an overcast day, with maximum temperatures of 14°C.
Met Office deputy chief meteorologist David Oliver said: “It is a different mix of weather this bank holiday weekend after what has been a largely settled week for the UK.
“The high-pressure that has been dominating the UK in recent days will move away to the south, allowing a low-pressure system to move in from the northwest. This will bring with it some more unsettled weather with showers or some longer spells of rain across the north on Saturday and then southern areas on Sunday. A good deal of dry weather is expected on Monday with most areas only seeing some isolated showers and mild temperatures, widely in the mid-teens.”
