THE long weekend looks to be dry with some sunny spells in Warrington.

While many residents will be looking forward to a few days off work, others will be heading to Neighbourhood Weekender music festival in Victoria Park.

Thousands of revellers will be travelling to the town to see the likes of Sugababes, Pulp and Scouting for Girls perform.

According to the Met Office, the forecast for this bank holiday weekend looks set to be warm and without rain.

A spokesman said: “High pressure keeps it dry through Friday and into the weekend, with plenty of sunshine, though some cloudier periods are possible.

“It will feel warm with generally light winds, but nights can often be quite chilly.

“Weather will remain predominantly settled through Sunday, although it perhaps may be somewhat cloudier than of late, with a few showers, especially further north and east.

“Through next week we can expect more dry weather, with warm sunny spells for most across the UK.

“However, there is a small chance of cooler conditions extending from the north, or indeed warmer conditions, accompanied by showers.

“Winds will generally be light, but potentially stronger in the far north and south at times.”
