Easter weather: Met Office gives Easter bank holiday verdict for Nottingham - and it’s mixed news

Those looking forward to a four-day weekend in Nottingham can expect a mixed bag weather-wise, according to the Met Office.

While those in the city won’t be able to expect the wall-to-wall sunshine and warm temperatures experienced last weekend, it’s not all doom and gloom either.

Overall, temperatures in Nottingham over the four-day weekend are unlikely to climb higher than 16C.

The Met Office’s Deputy Chief Meteorologist, Steven Keates, said: “The Easter weekend is set to bring changeable weather for many.

“Some areas may experience near dry conditions all weekend, whilst others may see heavy rain.

“We are keeping a close eye on an area of low pressure which sinks away to the south on Friday.

“This could bring with it some heavy, and possibly even disruptive rain for parts of southwest England, and also parts of Northern Ireland and south Wales.

“This will bring the potential for some difficult travelling conditions, with a lot of spray on the roads, and it’s important people keep an eye on our forecast as things evolve over the coming day or so.”

Here’s what you can expect in Nottingham over the four-day weekend.
