The BBC Wales weather service delivers reliable forecasts for the entire country, from coastal lowlands to mountain peaks. As the live forecast above shows, conditions shift quickly across the region, with coastal areas often milder than inland valleys and uplands.

What does the live forecast above tell us about Wales today?

The live forecast above gives a snapshot of current conditions across Wales. Coastal spots such as Cardiff and Swansea tend to be milder, while higher ground in Snowdonia and the Brecon Beacons can be cooler and wetter. Use it to check wind speed, rain radar and visibility before heading out.

What are the longer-term trends for Wales?

For planning ahead, the 10-day forecast and UK weather hub show how weather in Wales may change. Atlantic systems often bring rain, especially to the west, but high pressure can settle things for a few days. For a deeper look, the BBC Wales weather forecast video offers a visual breakdown of the week ahead, while the 14-day outlook helps with trips and events.

Snowfall frequency10–20 days per year on high ground
How does mountain weather in Wales differ from the coast?

Mountains like Snowdonia create their own weather – cooler, wetter and windier than the coast. Cloud, rain and sudden drops in temperature are common, so always check a dedicated Snowdonia weather forecast before hiking.

Where can I find the BBC Wales weather forecast video?

The BBC Wales weather forecast video is available on the BBC website and iPlayer, usually updated after the main news bulletins. It gives a visual summary of the next few days, including rain radar and wind maps tailored to Welsh regions.

What is the best way to get a weather in Wales 10 days outlook?

For a reliable weather in Wales 10 days forecast, use the BBC Wales weather live page or the Met Office website. Both update hourly and include detailed breakdowns for each county, from Anglesey to the Gower.
