Bonfire Night 2021: Here's the weather forecast for Blackpool and the Fylde coast

With nearly all events cancelled last year due to Covid, 2021 is a chance for families in and around the Fylde coast to make up for lost time.

If you are looking to enjoy a fireworks display on Friday (November 5), you'll be glad to know the day looks set to be relatively dry.

"Friday will be a much cloudier day than on Thursday, with just a few brighter interludes," a spokesman for the Met Office said.

"Remaining dry for most [of the day] but the odd occasional pocket of rain is possible."

The day will start off fairly chilly at around 7C before rising to 12C at midday - where it is expected to stay for the rest of the day.
