What will the weather in Manchester be like for the May Day bank holiday?

It’s disappointing news for those who were hoping to get out and about on the May Day bank holiday.

Despite the low chance of rain, it is a cloudy day all day in Manchester, with little chance of sun too.

The highest temperature predicted on the day is 15C whilst the lowest temperature is 9C

The Met Office provides a long range weather forecast for the UK, and this one is from 1 May to 10 May.

They say: “Throughout the start of May, much of the south is likely to see continuing dry and sunny spells. Parts of the north and west are more likely to experience cloudier conditions, with spells of mainly light rain or showers at times.

“Winds are expected to remain light and temperatures staying above average for most, but parts of the southeast may experience colder mornings and some late season frost.

“Moving through the period, the weather is likely to become more unsettled in northern and perhaps some central areas, bringing spells of rain and potentially some cooler air at times, whereas it’s probable southern areas will remain more settled throughout.

“Temperatures are likely to be above normal for the rest of the country.”
