Thursday weather forecast
According to the Oldham Weather Forecast, Thursday starts off with the likelihood of some scattered light showers during the morning period. However, the weather forecast suggests that such showers are likely to clear quickly and bright sunny periods are likely to form. Though there will be plenty of sunshine, cool winds blowing at about 30mph may create cooler temperatures during the day. The temperatures will average approximately 20°C, creating very pleasant weather once the cloudiness clears up.
Friday Weather Forecast
On Friday, weather improves again as more periods of sunshine are expected all through the day. The temperatures are likely to climb a bit higher, reaching approximately 22°C. Winds will also be calmer compared to the previous days. This will make the weather feel warmer during the afternoon period, making it a perfect day to go outside. Cloud cover is also expected to increase towards the evening, but there will be no rain expected overnight.
Weekend Weather Outlook
The weekend will be mostly dry, but with more cloud in the early morning than sunshine.
Saturday
Saturday will be cloudy, with scattered showers of drizzle over higher ground. During the day, brighter spells will increase to give some sunshine during the afternoon. The temperature will be about 22°C and more vigorous winds will keep it feeling fresh at times
Sunday
Sunday will be cloudy in the morning, and will brighten up later. It may be patchy drizzle early in the day but with most of the afternoon it should be dry with nice sunshine. Temperatures will reach around 23°C in Oldham. The cloudy beginning is expected to be followed by the best opportunities for outdoors activities on Sunday, says the Oldham Weather Forecast
Rainfall Outlook
A lack of significant rain is one of the key elements of this Oldham Weather Forecast. There are a few showers or drizzles to be expected at low amounts throughout the forecast period, but totals are expected to remain very low. Unless a more organised weather system moves in later in the coming week, gardens and open spaces will probably continue to dry out.
Rising Temperatures Next Week
Weather for the upcoming week is forecast to be warmer. There will be a high-pressure system to the south of the UK that is expected to slowly move towards the east, allowing for warmer air to push further north. With the current forecast, temperatures may also rise to the mid 20’s in the first half of next week. The thresholds are high enough to qualify as a heat wave, but the duration of the higher temperatures.
Wind and UV Levels
The next few days will continue to be breezy with temperatures still climbing. Highest winds on Thursday and Saturday with gusts to 30 mph at times. If it is sunny, UV levels will not drop below high, and people will need to cover their skin with sunscreen, drink plenty of fluids, and find shade during the hottest part of the day.
What This Means for Residents
If you’re thinking about taking part in any outdoor activities for the next few days, you will have good reason for optimism thanks to the latest Oldham Weather Forecast. The mornings can be cloudy, or occasionally a little wet, but for the most part, the afternoons will see fine conditions with good sunshine, and temperatures will be comfortable. Expect good weather for much of the forecast period whether you’re traveling, gardening, walking or enjoying local parks.
Forecast Summary
The Oldham Weather Forecast shows a fine few days ahead with temperatures rising gradually, and only some light rain showers may occur. Mornings could sometimes be cloudy, but the sun should be out more in the afternoon. Beyond that, warmer weather is forecast for next week, which will be a week to keep a close eye on the potential for hot summer weather.
The weather forecast for the next few days.
Outside of the forecast period, the best weather for Oldham residents will be in the afternoon when it is most likely to be sunny, so they should plan outdoor activities during that time. Mornings can still be chilly and cloudy, and it is recommended to bring a light jacket. With temperatures still on the rise during the weekend and into next week, it is also important to keep hydrated and avoid prolonged time in direct sunlight during the hottest time of the day. With sparse rainfall likely, gardeners may have to water their plants more often. Motorists also need to know that sometimes bright sunlight follows early-morning clouds and light drizzle may also make it difficult to see. Generally, the weather will be good for travel, family activities, walks, cycling and other outdoor pursuits, except for a few short showers in the forecast period.
