Market Bosworth Bosworth Park (Leicestershire) weather

Headline:

Early rain clearing to heavy and thundery showers today. Humid.

Today:

Rather unsettled, with cloud and outbreaks of rain, heavy at times, continuing to move northwards during the morning. Rain clearing to brighter skies, but with further showers breaking out, locally heavy and possibly thundery, during the afternoon. Warm and humid. Maximum temperature 21 °C.

Tonight:

Cloud and rain in the north gradually clearing, with a brief drier interlude, before a further band of rain or showers, locally heavy, moves northward overnight. Mild, with light winds. Minimum temperature 13 °C.

Wednesday:

A rather cloudy day, with further outbreaks of rain and drizzle, especially on the Derbyshire hills. Drier and brighter, with some sunny spells developing elsewhere. Warm in the sunshine. Maximum temperature 21 °C.

Outlook for Thursday to Saturday:

A weakening band of rain and drizzle moves south Thursday. Mostly dry with sunny spells Friday and Saturday. Still the chance of a few scattered showers. Often breezy and cool.

Into the weekend conditions will be mostly cool to average with some showers at times, most settled in the north west but increasingly showery to the southeast with a low risk of a more humid and thundery plume affecting eastern areas at first. The first part of the new week likely to see a mostly showery westerly breeze establish allowing temperatures to recover to around or just above average, feeling warm in sunnier periods outside of showers/heavy showers or thunderstorms, with a more settled spell to the southwest mid-week possibly spreading to much of the UK, though this likely only brief before a more showery northwest flow resumes. Winds after the weekend will be mostly light to moderate, though gusty conditions near heavy showers and thunderstorms remains likely.

As can often be the case at this time of year, predictability at this range is low. There are some signs of a slightly greater than normal chance of a more prolonged settled spell developing at some point during the period, at least for a time, and perhaps more likely in the south. However, by the same token further, perhaps shorter, unsettled interludes are probable too. Above average temperatures overall, and drier than average conditions overall, are very slightly favoured.
