A mix of cloud and patchy rain across the East Midlands today, with highs ranging 11–14°C. The live forecast above shows a generally unsettled pattern, with brighter spells developing later in the afternoon as a weak ridge edges in from the west.
What is the outlook for the next few days?
Thursday brings a drier interlude for much of the region, though cloud will thicken from the west by evening, ahead of a more organised band of rain moving in overnight. Friday is likely to be the wettest day of the week, with outbreaks of rain spreading eastwards, particularly affecting Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire. Temperatures will hold near seasonal averages, peaking around 12–14°C.
Are any weather warnings in place?
No formal warnings are currently issued by the Met Office for the East Midlands. However, the east midlands weather warning service may be triggered if the Friday rain band becomes slow-moving, especially across higher ground in the Peak District. For now, the risk is low, with any disruption limited to localised surface water.
