For anyone looking forward to the four-day Platinum Jubilee bank holiday weekend, the weather is probably going to play a part in your plans.

With many planning outdoor events such as street parties and barbecues to mark The Queen’s 70 years of service, wet weather could lead to more than a few wash outs.

We’ve turned to the Met Office to find out their weather predictions for the long weekend.

Met Office forecast for Brighton Platinum Jubilee weekend

While the people of Brighton can let go of any hopes of a heatwave over the Platinum Jubilee weekend there should still be plenty of sunshine around.

Although cloudy on Thursday, expect sunny intervals throughout the day and highs of 19C.

Friday is set to be the best day of the long weekend with temperatures climbing as high as 21C.

Saturday is a similar picture to Thursday before it becomes more overcast on Sunday with the risk of light showers, although remaining a warm 18C.

Met Office Deputy Chief Meteorologist, Helen Caughey, said: “While it may be an unsettled start for some with showers for northern and western areas, many areas will see generally settled conditions over much of the long Jubilee Weekend, with plenty of dry weather and good spells of sunshine.

"Temperatures will be widely into the low 20s, feeling warmer in the sunshine, although temperatures will drop off quickly into the evenings.

"The main source of any uncertainty for the weekend itself is to do with how far a plume of warm air to the south encroaches over southern areas of the UK.

"At present it’s looking like it could glance the far southeast on Saturday and Sunday, which would bring with it the risk of some showers, although the heaviest showers look likely to be contained over the continent."
