Rain dominates across the Garden of England this Friday. Friday will be a thoroughly wet day across Kent, with rain expected almost everywhere from the coast to inland areas. Temperatures will reach 18-19°C but will feel notably cooler at 15-16°C, and persistent cloud cover means Kent’s famous gardens won’t see much sunshine. Expect overcast skies throughout, with winds gusting to 31 km/h adding to the unsettled feel.
