Broughshane’s current temperature and precipitation levels are shown in the live forecast above, with highs expected to stay around 8–10°C and a moderate chance of rain. This is typical for early spring in County Antrim, where Atlantic systems often bring frequent cloud cover and drizzle.
What is the outlook for Broughshane this week?
Temperatures for the next five days range from 6°C to 12°C, with the wettest period likely on Wednesday and Thursday. Breezy conditions from the southwest will push in bands of rain, especially in the afternoon. By the weekend, a drier and slightly brighter spell is possible, though early morning mist may linger in low-lying areas.
How does Broughshane’s weather compare to nearby towns?
Broughshane sits inland from the Antrim coast, so it tends to be a degree or two cooler than Ballymena during the day. The Glens of Antrim can funnel stronger winds into the area, meaning gusts may exceed 25 mph more often than in sheltered parts of the county. For a broader view, see the UK weather hub or check Glasgow Weather for similar northern trends.
Is Broughshane usually wetter than Belfast?
Yes, Broughshane averages about 10% more rainfall annually than Belfast due to its position closer to the Antrim hills, which force moist Atlantic air to rise and condense. This makes local forecasts from sources like Met Office Broughshane particularly useful for precise rain timing.
When does snow typically occur in Broughshane?
Snowfall is infrequent—typically 5–10 days per year—and most common in January or February. Lying snow rarely lasts more than 48 hours, as ground temperatures stay just above freezing. For real-time updates, many locals rely on BBC Weather Broughshane or AccuWeather Broughshane.
Can I expect fog in Broughshane during autumn?
Yes, fog forms on roughly 15–20 autumn mornings, especially after clear nights when the ground cools rapidly. It usually lifts by late morning. Check the 10 Day Weather Forecast UK page for visibility trends across the week.
