Keep a coat handy in Chester today as the live forecast above shows a mix of cloud and showers, with the chance of a heavier burst moving in from the Irish Sea later. The city and its Dee-side neighbours will see temperatures staying cool for the time of year.

What is the weather in Chester tomorrow and this week?

Tomorrow’s weather in Chester looks brighter early, with some hazy sunshine breaking through before cloud builds from the west by lunchtime. Into the weekend, a low-pressure system tracking across the north-west will bring the weather in Chester 10 days into a more unsettled pattern, with occasional rain and brisk winds. For a longer view, the chester weather 14 day outlook suggests a return to drier, calmer conditions by the middle of next week, though the 21 day weather forecast chester remains uncertain as Atlantic systems jostle for position. The 30 day weather forecast chester points to a generally changeable March, with no prolonged cold snaps expected.

Are there any weather warnings for Chester?

No chester weather warning is currently in force from the Met Office, but keep an eye on the live forecast above for any updates. The main concern this week is gusty winds along the Dee estuary, which could make conditions tricky for cyclists and pedestrians near the waterfront. For chester weather this week, the strongest winds are likely on Friday afternoon, so secure any garden furniture if you’re heading out.
