Make sure you've got an umbrella handy
Over the bank holiday weekend people across Greater Manchester will be hoping to celebrate the Coronation of King Charles III with street parties, picnics in the park and barbecues. However, despite the warmer days we’ve experienced recently the weather is set to be unsettled this weekend - so make sure you have an umbrella on standby.
This will turn into heavier showers over the course of the afternoon, with no sign of the rain easy throughout the evening. It will remain mild though with temperatures only dropping to 13C.Those with street parties planned on Sunday may fare better as forecasters predict a mainly dry day with highs of 18C expected for Greater Manchester. It will be a cloudy day with the small possibility of light rain at 4pm. It should be dry by the evening though if you’re hoping to get the barbecue out.
The unsettled weather will also be felt across the country and Saturday will be cloudy and wet for many. Showers are likely to develop in central, eastern, and northern areas, as well as across Northern Ireland, but they are not expected to be as intense or as heavy as those on Friday.
