Darlaston Green (West Midlands Conurbation) weather

Headline:

Cool and rather cloudy with patchy drizzle at times.

Today:

A grey start with mist and patchy fog slowly lifting into a blanket of low cloud. Staying dry for most, though the odd spot of drizzle may be felt at times. Light winds, and feeling rather cool beneath grey skies. Maximum temperature 5 °C.

Tonight:

Clear spells spreading from the east, leading to a chilly night with frost and patchy fog likely in rural parts. Staying mostly dry and settled though, with light winds. Minimum temperature 0 °C.

Thursday:

Chilly to start, with cloud thickening from the west, closely followed by a band of heavy showers. Becoming breezy too, but with clearer spells to follow later in the afternoon. Maximum temperature 7 °C.

Outlook for Friday to Sunday:

Storm Éowyn brings wet and very windy conditions on Friday with coastal gales likely. Briefly more settled over the weekend, though still breezy at times with further scattered showers.

This looks like being and unsettled period across much of the country, but especially for northern and western parts. During Sunday and into Monday, another deep area of low pressure looks likely to move across the UK from the Atlantic, bringing wet and windy conditions to most if not all parts. Further spells of wet and windy weather look like moving east from the Atlantic to affect the UK during the rest of the period too, with drier, brighter spells in between. There is the potential for further weather warnings or even a named storm at some point. Temperatures overall are likely to end up being around or slightly above average, though wind and rain will make it feel chilly, and brief cool spells are likely between weather systems.

Generally mild at first, with periods of rain, showers and strong winds alternating with short-lived brighter and cooler interludes. With time, these may become increasingly confined to northern parts, with pressure possibly building across southern areas. This would result in longer drier and more-settled spells here, albeit with an increased chance of overnight fog and frost with temperatures falling correspondingly.
