Bromsgrove (Worcestershire) weather

Headline:

Changeable this week, but also turning warmer.

Today:

Dry and bright at first, but quickly clouding over through the morning as outbreaks of rain move in from the west. Turning breezier in the afternoon with some drier interludes at times. Maximum temperature 14 °C.

Tonight:

Cloud will continue to thicken this evening as the rain turns heavier. Staying breezy and mild under the thick blanket of cloud. Minimum temperature 9 °C.

Wednesday:

Breezy and cloudy with outbreaks of drizzle at first, and perhaps a few brighter spells. Rain will turn heavier for a time in the afternoon, before clearing to the east. Maximum temperature 17 °C.

Outlook for Thursday to Saturday:

Changeable over the next few days with spells of rain and showers at times. Brighter interludes are likely too, and it will turn increasingly warm.

A few showers around at the start of the period, mainly affecting the northwest where it will also be windy for a time. For many though the weekend should be fine and dry with spells of warm sunshine, but still some chilly nights. Into the following week fronts associated with another Atlantic low will try to push into the UK, but may struggle to make inroads against an area of high pressure to the northeast. So the greater chance of some rain is for western areas, while northern and eastern areas may well see plenty of dry weather. Temperatures likely remaining above average.

The dominant pattern during this period is most likely to be high pressure (or higher than average pressure) to the north and lower pressure to the south. This will probably lead to drier and more settled than normal weather in the north or northwest of the UK, with the south and possibly east more unsettled and wetter than normal. Temperatures will probably be close to or slightly above average overall.
