Easter 2023 weather in Liverpool: Met Office forecast for April bank holiday weekend and school holidays

The Easter holidays and April bank holiday weekend are upon us, as people in Liverpool and across the United Kingdom are crossing their fingers, hoping for a sun-soaked break. But what will the weather be like in Merseyside?

Most of the UK has  experienced tumultuous weather over the course of the last few weeks, no thanks to last week’s arrival of Storm Mathis. Rainfall has been battering the country, with strong winds and mildening temperatures.

Easter bank holiday starts on Good Friday (April 7) and goes until Easter Monday (April 10). Whereas schools in Liverpool break up for their Easter holidays for just under two weeks from April 3 to April 14.

Parents will be counting their chickens when the sun comes out so they can take their kids outside during their break, maybe for an easter egg hunt.

The Met Office’s long range weather forecast across the Easter period - April 7 to April 16 - reads: “Confidence is relatively low throughout this period, however many areas are expected to see mostly fine and dry weather, with sunny spells becoming increasingly common with time. Any cloud will bring a chance of spells of rain or drizzle to eastern areas on Friday, but then any rain is most likely across the west and southwest over the following week.

“Winds are expected to be relatively light. By mid-April, there is a chance of a period of more unsettled conditions bringing spells of wetter and windier weather more widely. Temperatures are likely to be near normal or slightly above, although these may drop quickly under any clear skies after dark, leaving scope for some overnight frosts.”
