Wet and showery weather is set to continue this weekend as rain continues to batter Basingstoke.

However, it will be warm, with temperatures in double figures for large parts of the weekend, providing an excellent opportunity to get out and about, or have a meal and drink out, when the dry weather is in.

The Met Office says the weather this weekend will be “light rain changing to cloudy by nighttime” on Saturday, followed by “cloudy changing to heavy showers by late morning” on Sunday and then “cloudy changing to sunny intervals by late morning”.
