Oldham weather forecast: Rain and cool temperatures this weekend

Oldham residents should prepare for a mixed bag of weather this weekend, with Saturday bringing cloudy skies and scattered showers that could dampen outdoor plans. Saturday morning will start off mostly dry with just a few light showers, but temperatures will only reach 10-12°C, making it feel quite cool, especially on higher ground around the town. The afternoon will see more persistent showers, some turning heavier, though there will be intervals of brightness to break up the gloom.

Sunday promises to be much more pleasant as a ridge of high pressure brings settled weather to the area. The day will be largely dry with sunny intervals and only a slim chance of an isolated light shower, making it ideal for those planning outdoor activities. Temperatures will reach a slightly warmer 11-13°C during the afternoon, with lighter winds of 5-15 mph making it feel milder in the sunshine.
