Watford May Bank Holiday Weather

Friday, April 29:

If you're planning on heading out on Friday then you might want to bring a light jacket along with you as temperatures will reach heights of just 12C and dark clouds will overshadow the region. 

But there is some good news with very little chance of rain and little wind with gusts of up to 19mph. 

Plus there's even more good news as if you suffer from Hayfever you won't need to worry too much as pollen levels are at medium for the day. 

Saturday, April 30: 

At the start of the day will see sunny cloudy skies but sadly they won't last long with the rest of the day expected to have dark clouds across the region. 

Temperatures will not be scorching either with heights of 14C and wind gusts reaching 15mph.

However, pollen levels will be slightly higher with the Met Office given a high mark for the area.

For the first day of May, the weather stays similar to the days prior with overcast clouds and temperatures never reaching above 13C.

However, there is very little chance of rain and the wind will be low at 15mph during the height of the day. 

If you struggle with Hayfever then you might need to be prepared as medium levels of pollen will be across the region. 

Bank Holiday Monday, May 2: 

Now on to the big day, with the warmer starting out warm with cloudy sunny skies that move into bright cloudy skies. 

Temperatures for Monday will stay around 15C so not too cold or warm, making it just the right weather for a light jacket. 

Plus wind won't be too strong either with gusts reaching 15mph and lows of 9mph.
