Birmingham Botanical Gardens (West Midlands Conurbation) weather

Headline:

Staying dry with some warm sunshine, though breezy at times.

Today:

Any low cloud clearing by mid-morning to leave another dry day with lengthy periods of sunshine. Perhaps turning a little cloudier through the afternoon. Feeling warmer but a brisk easterly breeze developing again. Maximum temperature 19 °C.

Tonight:

A fine evening with some late sunshine, but high cloud spilling northwards, this perhaps giving an isolated shower through the early hours. Most places remaining dry however. Not as chilly. Minimum temperature 6 °C.

Friday:

A cloudier start to the morning compared to recent days but still with hazy sunshine at times. Becoming increasingly sunny and warm through the day. Turning breezier by the afternoon. Maximum temperature 22 °C.

Outlook for Saturday to Monday:

Dry and mainly sunny over the weekend and into next week too. Temperatures generally lower than on Friday with chilly nights but feeling warm in the sunshine. Breezy at times.

High pressure should prevail for most of the outlook period, maintaining largely settled conditions for much of the time. This should result in lengthy spells of dry and bright weather. It will be breezy at times, especially in the southwest at first. Daytime temperatures will depend on the wind direction and cloud amounts, but most places will be warm for most of the period, and very warm days most likely will be further inland. Overnight frosts are possible on clear nights where winds fall light. There is also the chance of some areas of low cloud or fog, notably around the east coast. Towards the middle of April, the weather may turn more unsettled as rain or showers try to push in from the west.

An unsettled period is expected around mid April, with interludes of rain or showers at times. Despite being unsettled, there will be fair conditions between weather systems. A return to high pressure is signalled later in the month, bringing mainly dry and fine weather. Temperatures are likely to be around average at first, before climbing to above average later in the more settled weather. This means some warm or very warm days, especially further inland where winds stay light on fair days. This could also mean there might still be some chilly nights any clear skies.
