The Weather Today
Good morning! Today in the North West, we're starting off with a bit of a mixed bag. You can expect a largely overcast sky with intermittent showers on and off throughout the day. While some areas might experience short bursts of sunshine, don't put away those umbrellas just yet! Temperatures today are hovering around 14 to 16 degrees, so quite cool and fresh. Winds are coming in from the west, bringing a bit of a breeze, making it feel slightly cooler than what the thermometer reads
So, if you're heading out, you might want to grab a light jacket.
. 3-Day Forecast
Looking ahead to the next few days, we have more weather changes in store.
Day One: Expect a largely cloudy day, with high chances of light rain showers during the afternoon. Temperatures will range between 13 to 15 degrees. Winds will be from the northwest, remaining moderate.
Day Two: The clouds will start to break up, giving way to brighter spells, especially later in the day
There will still be a chance of a few isolated showers, but they will be fewer and far between. Highs of around 15 to 17 degrees and lighter winds, making it feel a touch warmer.
Day Three: A drier day is on the cards, with more sunshine breaking through. It will be largely settled, with temperatures climbing slightly to between 16 to 18 degrees
Winds will be light and variable, contributing to a more pleasant day ahead.
