Expect light showers and cool temperatures with some sunshine breaks.
Today, residents can expect a mix of weather conditions. The morning will start with a chance of a shower and temperatures around 3°C. Light winds will accompany a 50% cloud cover, making it a cool start to the day. As the day progresses, the chance of showers will persist, so it's a good idea to keep an umbrella handy if you're heading out.
In the afternoon, the weather will remain relatively unchanged with light winds continuing. Although the sun might peek through the clouds occasionally, the overall feel will be cool and damp. By evening, the temperatures will start to drop further, so a warm jacket is recommended if you plan to be outdoors.
Looking ahead to tomorrow, the forecast predicts cloudy skies with showers and a slight increase in temperature to around 11°C. There will be about two hours of sunshine, but light winds and occasional rain will dominate the day. The air quality remains at a low risk, and the UV index is also low, making it a relatively safe day to be outside.
