Pendle Local News & Events, Barrowford (2025)

18/07/2025

The likelihood of rain overnight into Saturday 19th July 2025 is around 50% but unfortunately things don't improve from then on. By 6 am we're at a 65% probability of getting wet and we hover around that likelihood until about 10 am when we rapidly rise to 80%. Any rain is likely to be heavy as well. We stay at an 80% chance until 6 pm when we gradually improve the probability of staying dry. By 10 pm we're almost 100% likely to be dry and under those drier and clearer conditions we leave Saturday behind.

For the whole of the daylight hours we will have dark clouds interspersed with sunny intervals. We could see sunshine at any point. We could also see thunder and lightning at various points of the day. Most specifically the probability of a storm is greatest at 7 am, 10 am to noon, 2 pm, 4 pm to 8 pm and one final threat at 9 pm.

Once again the winds are light, a maximum of 5 mph according to the BBC. They are also coming from the Southerly and Easterly directions, which makes sense as Yorkshire was threatened with storms yesterday, so it's our turn to have that weather front today. For me they could keep it though.

Visibility is mostly Moderate, improving to Good when the clouds lighten and the rain diminishes. Pollen is Low, as is Pollution. UV is Moderate and Humidity is very High all day. It is well above 90% both early in the morning and late in the evening and at night. During the day it never gets below 85%.

We're unlikely to have a sticky day though because the top temperature is due to be 20° and that in the early evening. For most of the day it will top out at 19° from the absolute lowest point of 15°. Too cool for the really unpleasant stickiness that high humidity brings with it.

It's not going to be one of our nicest Saturdays unfortunately Pendle people. I hope you all manage to stay dry and have a lovely day anyway. I already know I'm going to get wet as I have to be out and about. It's raincoat time for me!

14-day weather forecast for Nelson.

18/07/2025

Today, Friday 18th July 2025, will see temperatures at the start of the day of 16°. The hottest part of the day will be between 3 pm and 8 pm and will be 21°. After that we'll see a slow reduction to 16° as Friday gives way to Saturday.

We will have light cloud and clear spells until about 8 am which means we could see some early morning sunshine. From 8 am until noon we'll still possibly see some glimpses of the sun but the cloud darkens and there is about a 38% chance of rain. If it does rain it won't be heavy. From noon until 4 pm the cloud becomes lighter but also there's more of it so we are unlikely to see any sunshine during those hours. The probability of rain reduces to about 25%. From 4 pm until 6 pm the sunny spells come back again but the possibility of rain stays about the same. From 7 pm onwards the skies should clear, any threat of rain goes away and we, hopefully, end the daylight hours on a bright and sunny note. The clear skies go with us into Saturday.

Winds initially are from the South, move to the West by late morning and add in a touch of the North from 7 pm onwards. They are, once again light, according to the BBC. We can expect speeds up to 6 mph.

Visibility is Good all day, Pollution is Low, UV and Pollen Count are Moderate. Humidity is above 95% during the early hours, reduces to 71% by 5 pm and then climbs steadily back up to 90% by the end of the day.

It should be a fairly typical July day for the area, Pendle people, but we do have the tantalising promise of a nice evening, just as we start our weekend. Have a good day everyone and look after yourselves.

17/07/2025

Today, Thursday 17th July 2025, is going to be both duller and wetter than yesterday was. If and when we get rain, it's forecast to be light and drizzly rather than heavy but the clouds will be dark for most of the day.

During the night yesterday's clear weather will carry over and we'll see light cloud and some sunny intervals as the sun rises with the threat of rain building from 6 am onward. By 9 am the cloud will be dark and any sun will be gone and that's how it will be until Friday. Also by 9 am the threat of rain will have gone from the earlier figure of 0% to 40%. From 9 am to midnight it will remain between 40% likely to rain and approaching 60% likely to rain. The more likely percentages will be in the late afternoon and early evening.

Temperatures will be at their lowest of 13° just before dawn to a height of 21° between 4 pm and 8 pm. After that we'll see slow decline back to 17° as evening and night draw in.

Visibility is Good all day except when it is actually raining and then it's due to be Moderate.

The winds change gradually from the East to the South and then become more Westerly during the evening before swinging back to the South again as night falls. Speeds will, once again, be negligible according to the BBC. We're looking at a maximum of 6 mph during the late morning.

Pollution is Low, UV is Moderate and Pollen is Moderate too. Humidity starts above 90%, manage to drop to 78% and 79% between 3 pm and 5 pm before rising to above 90% again as we go into Friday. It may be just cool enough to avoid the sticky feel to the temperatures of two weeks ago. I hope so, that was unpleasant.

Sunrise is at 5 am, sunset at 9:30 pm. Have a lovely day Pendle people and maybe take a lightweight waterproof with you if you're out and about.

14-day weather forecast for Nelson.

16/07/2025

The grey clouds from yesterday continue overnight into the early hours of Wednesday 15th July 2025, but as the day goes on the chance of getting wet decreases. by 5 am it's at 24% and at 6 am it's at 11%. Throughout the day there is often a chance of rain but it never gets above 20% so we might even go the whole day without any.

Unfortunately it is going to be cloudy for the majority of Wednesday, although the cloud is light. We may get to see some glimpses of the sun early in the morning and again from 5 pm onwards. Just before it goes dark we may even get that last hour of clear skies and sunshine. The clear skies continue overnight and into Thursday.

Temperatures start at 13°, top out at 20° between 1 pm and 7 pm and then slowly decline until we leave Wednesday on 15°. We may hit 21° if the sun peeps out early enough in the afternoon but 20° is more likely.

Winds are, once again, mostly from the West but there is a shift towards the North between 8 am and 1 pm and a shift towards the East from about 10 pm onwards. The BBC has the speeds of the wind being between 6 mph (morning) and 1 mph (evening). I'm not sure I believe the BBC when it comes to wind speeds, they seem awfully low to me...

Visibility is Moderate until 8 am and Good after that. Pollution is Low, UV is Moderate but Pollen is High once again.

Humidity is well above 90% overnight. By 11 am it's dropped to 70% and it reaches its low of 63% by 3 pm. After that it climbs again until it's back at 90% as we go into Thursday.

It should be a drier day today Pendle people and, hopefully one that's not too humid or too windy. Have a lovely day and remember, you're half-way through the working week already!

14-day weather forecast for Nelson.

15/07/2025

Today, Tuesday 15th July 2025, is likely to be cooler and wetter than the last few days have been. The dry but cloudy overnight conditions give way to darker cloud and the threat of rain even as the sun rises. By 8 am we are 74% likely to have rain and by 9 am that probability is 80%. It stays at that level until 4pm when the likelihood drops to 67%. Between 5 pm and 10 pm we're typically 50% to 60% likely to get wet. After that the likelihood steadily drops until we have a dry night going into the early hours of Wednesday.

There is the possibility of thunder in the early evening. Also between 4 pm and 9 pm we could see the occasional sunny interval as the showers are likely to be lighter than they are due to be in the morning and early afternoon.

Temperatures are 12° at their lowest point, rise to 16° as the rain lightens when we may see a few glimpses of the sun, but are more typically 15° for the majority of the day.

Pollution and Pollen are both Low, UV is Moderate and Visibility is Moderate too. Humidity is between 84% and 95% all day so it's probably a good job that it won't be a hot one!

Winds are Southerly and Westerly and between 7 mph and 13 mph so nothing to cause anyone any concern.

Have a lovely day Pendle people and maybe take a waterproof with you if you're out and about today.

13/07/2025

After the last few clear and sunny days we've had, Monday 14th July could have some wet spells in store for us. We're up to 60% likely to get rain overnight and, while it's dry between 6 am and 10 am, after that we're 90% likely to get rain for an hour or two. After 12 pm the likelihood of rain drops back to 40% and between then and 4 pm it will be typically at 50%. From 4 pm onwards the skies will gradually begin to clear and we should end the daylight hours with a lovely sunny evening. The clear skies will continue overnight into Tuesday.

Between the hours of 11 am and 5 pm we could have thunderstorms in with the showers.

Temperatures will start at 16°, peak at 23° around lunchtime and lower to 13° by the end of the day.

Changeable winds are slightly stronger than they were yesterday, the BBC has them at a maximum of 12 mph during the mid-afternoon. For the rest of the day they are even slighter than that. They start off coming from the Southerly directions but swing round during the day to come in from the West.

Visibility will be Moderate when the cloud and rain are with us but Good or Very Good when the weather is drier. Pollution is Low, UV is Moderate and Pollen Count is still High.

Humidity starts off above 90%, reaches 57% during the afternoon and gets down to 54% during the sunnier evening before climbing back up again to 70% as we leave Monday behind.

If it gets hot enough, we may be in for a sticky kind of day Pendle people. Otherwise it could just be a matter of dodging any thunderstorms and saving any outdoor stuff for the late afternoon and evening.

Have a good day everyone.

It's going to be another dry and sunny day for Sunday 13th July 2025. There's almost no chance of rain even though we will see some light cloud in the afternoon, after about 2 pm and then for the rest of the day.

Temperatures are, once again, likely to feel even hotter than they actually are because of the almost complete lack of any wind. We're due to start the day on a low of 14° and steadily climb until we reach 26° in the mid afternoon. It is likely to feel more like 28° or even 29° though. That level of temperature will remain from about 1 pm to about 6 pm then we'll have a steady reduction as the evening draws in until we leave Sunday on 19°.

The Easterly wind is due to reach a maximum speed of 9 mph today during the late afternoon and early evening. At other times it will be even less than that.

Visibility is Good all day, Humidity approaches 90% overnight but will fall to 45% by 3 pm only to rise again to 75% as we go into Monday.

Pollution is Low but Pollen Count and UV are both High so it's worth being aware of if you're sensitive to either.

It should be a lovely day Pendle people. I hope you have interesting plans for the rest of the weekend.

11/07/2025

A dry night, with the lowest temperature being 14°, will lead into an equally dry day for Saturday 12th July 2025. There is 0% chance of rain today as we are forecast 100% clear skies and bright sunshine throughout the daylight hours.

Temperatures will peak at 28° somewhere around 2 pm and stay at the level for about 5 hours until they begin to subside at 8 pm. We go into Sunday on 18° so it's going to be an even warmer night than Friday night!

Winds are from the East today and speeds are slight. Top speed is estimated by the BBC to be around 8 mph so we're unlikely to notice any cooling effects from such a light breeze. In fact the BBC says that the temperature will feel more like 30° during the hottest part of the day, probably because there will be so little wind and no shade from any cloud.

Humidity is 90% at 4 am, drops to 44% by 4 pm and rises to 68% by the end of Saturday. It's still enough to give a sticky feel to the heat though. Hopefully it won't be too unpleasant and you will be able to sleep.

Visibility is Good all day, Pollution is Low, UV is High and Pollen is Very High once again. It's summer Pendle people and it's weekend. Have a lovely day everyone.

14-day weather forecast for Nelson.

11/07/2025

Today, Friday 11th July 2025, we're due to have unbroken sunshine all day and clear skies even when the sun isn't there. The chance of rain is 0% and the Southerly and Westerly winds are negligible. The BBC has top wind speeds of 4 mph. The winds are so light that the BBC says the temperature may even feel hotter than it actually is.

Temperatures are at their lowest at 4 am just before sunrise; that is 12°. We'll be at 21° by 10 am and 27° or 28° by 3 pm. The next four hours should see temperatures holding steady at that before they start to decline around 7 pm or 8 pm. Overnight into Saturday temperatures will still be high at 17°.

The Humidity will be at 90% or more until 6 am and then will drop fairly steadily to a low of 46% by 4 pm before rising to 80% again by the end of the day. This is the lowest the humidity has been for a number of weeks now so it is possible that the weather won't be as sticky as it was last time we had a spell of good weather. Here's hoping!

Visibility is Good all day and Pollution is Low. UV is High (watch out for sunburn if you're out in it for any length of time) and, unfortunately Pollen is Very High so make sure you've got your antihistamines to hand if you need them.

14-day weather forecast for Nelson.

10/07/2025

Overnight tonight, into Thursday 10th July 2025, the weather should be dry but there is a possibility of fog which is likely to hang around until after 7 am. From then until 3 pm we're due to have light cloud and sunny intervals. From 4 pm until 9 pm (sunset) we're in line for unbroken sunshine and from sunset until midnight the skies will be clear to set us up for a bright day on Friday.

Temperatures will start at 13° in the fog and peak at 24° between 3 pm and 7 pm. It will be slightly cooler earlier because of the light cloud. After 7 pm we'll see a gradual decline to 15° as we leave Friday behind.

Winds are forecast to be very light and from the West, with a bit of the South in there at times. The BBC shows nothing above 6 mph.

Visibility will be Very Poor in the fog, lighten to Moderate during the early morning commute and improve to Good after the cloud starts to lift and break.

Humidity is 100% overnight and in the early morning fog. It gets as low as 60% during the late afternoon and it's back to 89% by midnight. If the wind is a light as the BBC says and the humidity is high, we might be in for a sticky afternoon Pendle people.

Pollution is Low but both Pollen and UV are High. You might need to take care during the afternoon if you're out and about! Have a lovely day everyone.

09/07/2025

Well, yesterday didn't exactly go to plan did it? Instead of the promised wall-to-wall sunshine we definitely had some cloud - and it was quite cold at first. The wind is the other thing. I'm becoming increasingly convinced that the BBC have no idea what the wind is doing! I honestly thought they'd moved on from Michael Fish's non-forecast of that hurricane in October 1987. Yesterday was supposed to be 'gentle breezes' but I found the winds strong at times. Not *quite* hurricane speeds, I'm exaggerating there, but I do think they underplay what we can expect.

Anyway, on to today, Wednesday 9th July 2025, overnight cloud with a 20% to 40% chance of light rain, continues into the early hours of daylight. From 8 am to 4 pm the light cloud continues and there is always a slight chance of rain - less than 20%. We will not see any sun until very late in the afternoon. Between 5 pm and 7 pm there will be light cloud and sunny intervals and for the last couple of hours of daylight we have been promised unbroken sunshine. We'll see! The clear skies take us into Thursday.

The lowest temperatures of the day are 14° at both ends of the day. The peak is 20°, probably about 3 pm.

Visibility is Moderate during the early hours but Good after that. Pollution is Low, UV is Moderate. Pollen Count is, unfortunately, High again. Humidity is nearly 100% first thing in the morning and manages to get as low as 74% during the warmest part of the day before returning to 96% on Wednesday night.

In theory we're due gentle and light Westerly breezes all day. Speeds are between 4 mph and 11 mph with the highest speeds occurring a the warmest parts of the day. You'll have to excuse me if I don't necessarily believe those figures!

That's it Pendle people, I hope you all have a lovely day.

14-day weather forecast for Nelson.

08/07/2025

Today, Tuesday 8th July 2025, we're due to have cloudless and sunny conditions all day. No rain, no cloud and very little wind - up to 11 mph and from the West. I don't necessarily believe that about the wind though. Yesterday was supposed to be the same but I recall some very gusty conditions during the afternoon and early evening. I don't think the BBC is as accurate with the wind as the Met is/was.

Just as it goes dark, at 10 pm, we can expect some light cloud to arrive and take us into Wednesday. We may even get a spot or two of rain at 10 pm if we're very unlucky (13% likelihood). I don't think we'll get as nice a day on Wednesday as we're due to have today.

Temperatures start at 9° and reach 19° by mid afternoon. The highest temperatures of the day will last from noon to about 6 pm and then we'll see a slow decline until we leave Tuesday on 13°.

Visibility is Good all day and Humidity starts at 93%, drops to 61% by early afternoon and then rises back to 91% as we go into Wednesday. Pollution is Low, Pollen Count is High and UV is High as well.

Have a lovely day Pendle people and take care of yourselves.
