Today, Sunday 14th December 2025, is due to be wet. Starting at midnight tonight drizzle will gradually build up until we're 95% likely to be rained on by 4 am. Between 7 am and 10 am we'll have a short amount of time when the rain is 88% likely to be with us. Apart from that the probability of getting wet at any one time remains above 90% until 8 pm. From then it's between 55% and 87% until we leave the weekend behind.

If it's any consolation the rain is never due to be heavy.

The wind remains Southerly all day and is fairly constant at speeds around 15 mph to 18 mph.

Temperatures start off at 9°, get as high as 10° by 1 pm and then drop back to 9° from 4 pm onwards. They don't get any lower than that for the rest of Sunday.

UV and Pollution are both Low and Visibility is Moderate until 8 am and Good after that. Humidity starts at 83% but rises in the rain until it's at 90% by 6 am. it remains there until noon when it drops slightly to 89% and continues dropping very slowly for the rest of the day. The low point of 81% is reached by 6 pm before a small rise to 86% by the end of the day.

The Humidity and the Visibility figures would tend to support the idea that the rain could be more intermittent in the afternoon but the impact of the wind can't be ignored. Fairly gusty winds do dry humidity up and, even without that, they will remove about 3° from the feel of the temperatures.

It looks like it will be a damp and fairly blustery day Pendle people. Waterproofs will be needed! Have a lovely day and look after yourselves.

13/12/2025

Overnight into Saturday 14th December 2025 should be dry with clear spells. As a result the temperature will be 5° for most of the early hours, dipping to 4° just before dawn. Winds will be from a Southerly direction - with a bit of the West in the mix - and 7 mph.

As the sun rises we will have some cloud but it will be light and we're forecast sunny intervals for most of the daylight hours. By 1 pm the temperature is at 8° and it remains there for the rest of the day. Winds are still mostly Southerly but get into double figures and are 12 mph at 1 pm.

During the afternoon and the early part of the evening the cloud gradually thickens and any sunny or clear spells are gone by 3 pm. Wind speeds are still increasing and get to 15 mph by 6 pm which is where they remain for the rest of Saturday.

Rain could well move in from 8 pm onwards and this is why the temperature does not drop as we move towards Sunday. We get clouds and overcast conditions. Between 8 pm and 11 pm the likelihood of getting wet is between 46% and 65% although any rain is due to be light. After 11 pm the probability of rain drops below 40% and, if we get any, it is likely to be drizzle.

UV and Pollution are both Low and Visibility is Good all day. Humidity is at 96% at 9 am, lowers to 85% during the afternoon and continues to slowly reduce, leaving Saturday on 82%. This would seem to support the probability of any rain that we do get being light and/or intermittent.

It should be a decent day Pendle people; not warm feeling because winds of 15 mph will strip about 3° off the feel of the actual temperature, but bright enough and clear enough for all of you to be finding things to get out and do. There's lots of things going on in Pendle today so enjoy yourselves and I won't even suggest light waterproofs. A hat and gloves might be in order though.

12/12/2025

Overnight into Friday 12th December 2025, we will have rain. By 5 am it will be at 90% likely to be raining on us and between 6 am and 9 am it will be 98% or 99% likely to be wet. The rain will be light but probably persistent. From 9 am onwards the probability of getting wet will slowly reduce until by 2 pm it's gone and we might even have some sunny spells during the last couple of hours of daylight. For the rest of the day there's 0% chance of rain.

Temperatures start at 9° and remain there or at 8° for the hours of daylight. By 6 pm they're at 6° and they remain there until we leave Friday behind.

Winds are in double figures overnight but by 6 am they've dropped to 7 mph. Wind speeds remain mostly around there or 6 mph for the whole day. The direction remains more or less Southerly. Sometimes there's quite a bit of Westerly in the mix but it always return to the South after an hour or two.

UV and Pollution are both Low and Visibility improves as the day goes on. It's Moderate during the morning commute but Very Good or Good for the rest of the day.

Humidity is at 95% by 7 am and reduces to 86% by 2 pm. From 4 pm onwards it starts to climb again and it's at 92% as we go into Saturday.

There's an improving picture to the day Pendle people. It might not be good weather during the morning and lunchtime period but by the time school and work is over for the weekend it will be dry, fairly calm and working towards being cold. Not quite freezing but definitely weather to wrap up for. Have a lovely time whatever you get up to today.

11/12/2025

Today, Thursday 11th December 2025, we have cloudy conditions with clear intervals all day. There is 0% chance of rain until 8 pm when we get a 15% chance. That gradually increases up to midnight and we leave Thursday on a 27% chance of rain.

When the clouds allow we will have sunshine during the day and as evening comes on the clear intervals will become fewer as the cloud cover increases. This means that the temperature won't drop too much as we go into Friday.

We start the day on temperatures of 7° and reach the day's high of 10° at 2 pm. Before that we'll get to 9° by noon and after 3 pm the temperature returns to 9° where it remains for the rest of the day.

Winds are Southerly and between 10 mph and 13 mph. Typically they will be 12 mph for the majority of the time.

UV and Pollution are both Low and Visibility is Very Good. Humidity is at 90% by 8 am but drops to 82% by 1 pm before climbing back to 90% at the end of the day.

It should be a lovely day Pendle people. Not too much wind, no rain and some sunshine. We can't ask for anything more in December. Have a good day everyone.

10/12/2025

Today, Wednesday 10th December 2025, will be a less wild day than yesterday was. Winds should be between 12 mph and 18 mph all day and be South Westerly for the most part. Occasionally they'll be straight from the South.

The likelihood of getting wet overnight is between 20% and 70%. We'll have a short time around 8 am when that likelihood goes up to 90% but otherwise it remains between the two earlier percentages until 5 pm when it goes down to 0% as the clouds lighten. 0% is where it remains until Thursday.

We might even get some sunny periods during the daylight hours as there will be breaks between the showers. After the probability of rain has gone away the breaks will become clear spells. Whatever rain we get is due to be light.

Temperatures start at 8°, get up to 10° by 1 pm and start to dip from there after 2 pm. By the time we leave Wednesday temperatures are at 8° again.

UV and Pollution are both Low and Visibility is mostly Very Good. The only exception is when we're 90% likely to have rain around 8 am to 9 am. Then it's Good.

Humidity is 87% by 6 am and stays around there until 11 am. Then it begins to decline slightly until it reaches the day's low of 81% by 1 pm. Then it begins a slow rise until it's 87% again by the end of the day.

It looks like a fairly mild and inoffensive day for December Pendle people. We might get wet during the morning commute but it should be OK to wear light waterproofs for the rest of the time. Watch out for low sunshine if you're driving though. It can be a hazard at this time of year.

09/12/2025

Today, Tuesday 9th December 2025, is forecast to be fairly unpleasant weather-wise.
Temperatures are good for the time of year but that's the only positive, unfortunately.

We'll start with a 50% chance of rain for the first couple of hours of Tuesday. By 4 am that will be 100% and by 6 am it will be heavy rain and 100% probability of getting wet. We maintain that level of loveliness until 11 am when the intensity of rain should slacken off slightly. It's still at 95% likely to be here though.

From noon until 7 pm the likelihood of being rained on is never less than 50%. At times it's 90% but it isn't supposed to be as heavy as it is forecast to be in the morning. If we're lucky we might get some reprieve from it at times.

After 7 pm the probability of rain drops right down to below 30% and we go into Wednesday on what should be drier conditions with some clear spells.

Added to the prospect of heavy rain between 6 am and 11 am we also have strong and gusty winds. They're from the South all day though veering slightly Westwards after dark. At the start of the day they're 8 mph but they gradually increase in speed until they're 18 mph by 7 am.

Then there's a sudden increase in wind speed and we get very gusty conditions of between 40 mph and 42 mph from 8 am until 6 pm.

We have a yellow warning of rain in effect until 3 pm and a yellow warning of wind in effect until 6 am tomorrow morning.

After 6 pm the winds are due to return to more reasonable speeds of 20 mph slowly dropping to 15 mph by the end of the day.

We're not forecast any sun at all today. UV and Pollution are both Low and Visibility is Poor overnight and Moderate for the morning. From Noon until 3 pm it's Good and from 3 pm until Wednesday it's Very Good. That's an improving picture.

Humidity is at 96% just after midnight, gets down to 92% by 6 am then stays within spitting distance of that until 1 pm. By 2 pm it's down to 88% and by the time we leave Tuesday behind it's down to 81%. Humidity will improve as well as the day goes on.

The morning looks pretty bad Pendle people. The only saving grace is that the temperatures are high enough so that we won't freeze as we get wet through and blown about. They start at 10°, get up to 14° between 1 pm and 4 pm and then reduce to 9° under the clearer skies as we go into Wednesday. In the wind and rain we'll lose 1° to feel that much colder than the actual temperatures but that still leaves us feeling 10° to 12° during the worst of the wind and rain.

If you have to step outside at all today, and you've got the choice about when to venture forth, choose the afternoon. It will be a little bit warmer and less likely to rain heavily. Have a good day Pendle people and remember your waterproofs.

08/12/2025

It looks like today, Monday 8th December 2025, is going to be another wet day but it's hard to tell how wet it's going to be. We have a yellow weather warning for rain but the BBC also shows the rain as being light and maybe with sunny intervals during the late morning and afternoon. I suspect it won't be too bad a picture but it might be a good idea to be prepared anyway.

Overnight and into the first part of the morning we're due between a 33% and 80% probability of getting wet with the most likely times for rain being around 6 am and the times when most of us commute or take the kids to school being around 66% likely to be rained on. From 9 am onwards the probability of rain is less than 50% all day and any rain we have in the morning after 9 am is likely to be drizzle. From 11 am until it goes dark we could have sunny intervals between the showers. After dark it will be clear spells.

Temperatures will start at 8°. go up to 10° by 11 am, drop back to 9° after sunset and remain at 9° for the rest of the day.

Winds are South-Westerly and 13 mph at their strongest in the morning. During the afternoon the winds slowly decline in speed until we leave Monday on 8 mph.

UV and Pollution are both Low, Visibility is Very Good during the early hours and while it's light, and Good after 5 pm. Humidity is 91% at it's highest in the morning, reduces to 83% by 1 pm and then gradually increases again until it's 94% by the end of the day.

To be honest, Pendle people, if it wasn't for the weather warning I would be 100% happy to describe Monday as a relatively decent day for December and maybe take your light-weight waterproofs if you need to go out. The weather warning could be early notification of the more severe blustery conditions that are due to arrive on Tuesday but it could also well be worth your while to be aware and make sure you're properly kitted out in case the weather does take a turn for the worse. Whatever you get up to, have a good day Pendle people.

07/12/2025

Yesterday's rain will peter out overnight into Sunday 7th December 2025 and by 6 am we should be dry. Those conditions will last until 11 am when another band of rain starts to move in. By 1 pm we'll be 99% likely to have rain and between then and 9 pm the probability of getting wet never dips below 91% and is likely to be heavy - especially between 1 pm and 4 pm.
After 9 pm that band of rain starts to fade away and we leave Sunday on a 39% probability of having drizzle.

The wind is also changeable. We keep the mostly South-Westerly winds from yesterday until 8 am when they start to swing towards the South-East. They remain South-Easterly until 4 pm when they veer back to the South-West again which is where they stay for the rest of the day.

From the start of the day until 2 pm the winds are quiet, always in single figures for speed. From 2 pm onwards we are due to see winds pick up. As they veer back towards the South-West after 4 pm winds will be at speeds of 11 mph and by 6 pm, 18 mph. From then until the end of the day they will stay mostly around 18 mph, only reducing to 14 mph as we move into Monday.

Temperatures reach their low point of 6° just as the sun comes up (although we won't see it at all because of the overcast conditions). From then until 4 pm they rise steadily to a high of 11°. As we leave Sunday behind we'll still be at 9°. Warm for the time of year.

UV and Pollution are both Low. Visibility overnight is Good, becoming Very Good during the times when it's not raining. It remains Good until the heavy rain arrives at 1 pm. Then it becomes Poor. From 4 pm when the rain ceases being quite so heavy then Visibility improves to Moderate and as most of the band of rain begins to leave us then Visibility becomes Good or Very Good again.

Humidity is at 96% by 6 am and manages to fall to 92% by 1 pm. The heavy rain soon sets it rising again though, and by 4 pm it's at 98%. During the last hour of the day it falls to 87% which backs up the theory that the rain during the evening and first part of the night will not be as heavy. It's hard to tell precisely though because stronger winds also reduce humidity.

It's not due to be a pleasant day Pendle people. We will have rain then, as it goes away, the wind rises which will make the remaining rain, even if it's lighter, feel just as bad. And it will pull the feel of the temperature right down. If you have to be out and about try to make it before 10 am. Otherwise it's waterproofs and wellies time! Have a good rest of the weekend everyone.

05/12/2025

Overnight into Friday the 5th December 2025, we'll have rain dying away until it's dry by 4 am with 0% chance of rain. The dry conditions will continue through the morning until around 2 pm when rain will begin to move in again.
For the rest of the day we're steadily going to be increasing the probability that we'll get rained upon.
By 5 pm we're 90% likely to be wet and the rain will be heavy. From then until Friday is finished we're between 90% and 100% going to get wet; and the heavy stuff will last from 5 pm until 8 pm. Not a good start to the weekend Pendle people!

The wind is also a feature to watch out for. It remains mostly Southerly all day - sometimes slightly West of South, sometimes slightly East of South - and starts at about 7 mph. From 9 am until 4 pm it picks up speed gradually until it's at 17 mph by 4 pm.
Then suddenly, somewhere around 5 pm, it gets up to 41 mph before dropping back to 20 mph at 6 pm. From then until midnight into Saturday it gradually decreases in speed from 20 mph down to 11 mph.
Where this sudden blast of gusty wind comes from is anybody's guess but coupled with the rain, which will be heavy at that point, it's probably a good idea to avoid being out at that time if you can.

Temperature-wise the low point of the day is during the morning. We will get down to 3° between 4 am and 9 am. From then until 1 pm we'll have a slow rise to 7° and stay there until 4 pm. The temperature will then start to fall, as is typical. It will be 6° when the unexpectedly strong winds arrive at 5 pm and it will be 5° by 6 pm when the winds subside again.
Then the temperature starts to rise and, as we go into Saturday, we're at 8° and the forecast is for the next few days to be warmer.

UV and Pollution are both Low and Visibility is Very Good until the rain really settles in at 4 pm. Under the unexpectedly squally and wet conditions from about 5 pm to 6 pm Visibility is Poor and after that bout of wild weather departs we have Moderate Visibility for a few hours until the heavy rain is gone. Then we finish Friday, from 9 pm onwards, on Good Visibility.

Humidity is at 95% by 8 am, gets down to 83% by 2 pm and hits 90% somewhere between 5 pm and 6 pm. We leave the day on 94% Humidity.

It's going to be an odd sort of afternoon Pendle people and what makes it worse is that it's going to be the commuting hour on a Friday afternoon when we get the sudden bout of wet, windy and unpleasant weather, coupled with Poor Visibility. Although we can always hope that the BBC thinks it's going to be worse than it actually turns out to be, I would definitely advise anyone who has that option to avoid travelling at that time. I will, for sure, be indoors before then! Whatever you get up to, have a good day and take care of yourselves.

04/12/2025

In a reversal of yesterday's weather conditions, today Thursday 4th December 2025, will start off dry and then become wet.

Overnight we'll start at 0% chance of rain but gradually increase our likelihood of getting wet until by 5 am we're at 43% and by 9 am we're at 95%. From then until 4 pm the probability of rain will be between 85% and 95%. From 4 pm onwards we're in a slowly declining picture until by the first hour on Friday we finally get below 50%.

The rain is forecast to be light, though more persistent in the morning as the cloud cover is thicker. Between 1 pm and 4 pm we could even see a few sunny intervals between the showers. After sunset the clear spells will continue until 9 pm when the cloud will thicken again. The thicker cloud at the end of the day doesn't mean more rain but it does mean that the overnight-into-Friday temperature remains acceptable for December.

The temperature during the very early hours is 5° and it increases to 6° as the cloud moves in. By 11 am it reaches 7°, which is the high point of the day, and by 4 pm it's back to 6°. Under the clearer evening spells it drops to 5° but remains there for the rest of Thursday as the cloud cover increases again.

Winds are South-Easterly and Southerly until 4 pm and, as the weather changes, so does the wind direction. From then onwards it veers towards the South-West. Top wind speeds are 11 mph and 12 mph and are from 6 am to 1 pm. After that we see typical wind speeds of 8 mph. Gentle breezes only Pendle people.

UV and Pollution are both low and Visibility is Very Good before the rain arrives. From 6 am to 8 am it's Good and then falls to Moderate where it stays until noon. As we get the potential for sunny intervals at lunchtime Visibility becomes Good again and that's where it stays until we leave Thursday behind.

Humidity is 94% by 5 am. It falls to 88% by 1 pm and then gradually rises to 92% by the end of the day.

It doesn't look like we can avoid the rain so it won't be a brilliant morning but the gentle wind and possibility of a few sunny spells might cheer us up in the afternoon. Visibility stats and Humidity figures seem to suggest that there's not going to be as much rain in the afternoon so maybe save all your errands for then? Whatever you get up to, have a good day everyone.

03/12/2025

Today, Wednesday 3rd December 2025, looks very much like a repeat of yesterday. Overnight temperatures will be 5° and we'll be up to 46% likely to see light rain. Winds will be Southerly and slightly quieter than yesterday at 6 mph.

By dawn the rain will be gone and we're forecast 0% chance of rain all day until 10 pm when we are 20% likely to get wet for the last couple of hours of the day. Winds remain Southerly and are between 7 mph and 10 mph but typically will be 9 mph.

As there's no rain the cloud cover will be light and intermittent. We should get sunny intervals during the hours of daylight and a few clear spells when it's dark, although the clouds will be thicker for most of the time, especially from 10 pm onwards.

Temperatures will be at 4° just before dawn and will gradually rise to 7° by 1 pm and remain there until 4 pm when they'll drop to 6° and stay there for the rest of Wednesday.

UV and Pollution are both Low and Visibility is Good or Very Good all day.

Humidity is at 97% by 8 am, having risen during the night. By 1 pm it's at 86% and from 3 pm it starts rising until it's at 93% by 7 pm. It remains around that point as we go into Thursday.

It should be decent weather Pendle people. Have a lovely day, try and get a bit of sunshine and enjoy yourselves.

02/12/2025

Overnight into Tuesday 2nd December 2025, the light rain should die away. At midnight it's 89% likely to be raining but by 5 am it's 0%. To be honest, I don't think Monday was as bad as the BBC thought it would be. We got rain, of course, but it was light rain and there were quite long periods of time when it wasn't raining at all.

As daylight arrives on Tuesday we'll see light cloud and sunny intervals and after sunset the sunny intervals will become clear spells. Those will gradually cloud over and by 10 pm we might see some more rain (36%) building up to 58% as we go into Wednesday.

Temperatures will start the day at 8° as we're still under cloud cover. They'll dip to 5° approaching dawn and rise to 8° again by 1 pm. By 5 pm they'll be at 6° and by 7 pm they'll be at 5° which is where they'll stay until Wednesday because, once again, we'll be under cloud cover.

Winds remain Southerly and will gradually reduce in speed from 15 mph at midnight to 10 mph at 9 am, 8 mph by 3 pm and 6 mph from 8 pm until the end of the day.

UV and Pollution are both Low, Visibility is Very Good for most of the day; only dipping slightly to Good under the late evening's increasing cloud - and maybe rain.

Humidity is at 92% by 7 am, dips to 83% by 1 pm and then gradually creeps up to 95% as we go into Wednesday.

On the whole it should be decent weather for early December, Pendle people. I hope you all have a good day and look after yourselves.
