Dorset can expect a largely dry and settled spell over the next ten days, with high pressure building from the south-west bringing plenty of sunshine and temperatures climbing a few degrees above the seasonal average – a welcome change after recent unsettled conditions.

What will the weather in Dorset be like day by day?

The live forecast above shows a ridge of high pressure extending across southern England, keeping most of Dorset dry through the working week. Coastal areas from Weymouth to Swanage will see morning sea fog or low cloud, but this usually clears by late morning, giving way to warm afternoon sunshine. Inland, including Dorchester and Sherborne, skies stay clearer. The weather in Dorset tomorrow follows the same pattern: sunny spells after any early mist lifts. By the weekend, a weak front may bring a few light showers, but confidence is high that the dry theme continues into the following week.

Are there any longer-range signals for Dorset?

Looking beyond the ten-day window, the BBC Weather Dorset 14 days outlook suggests the settled pattern may persist, though with a gradual increase in cloud and a small chance of rain by day 12–14. The 21 day weather forecast Dorset from the Met Office indicates a transition to more changeable conditions later in the month, but nothing severe is expected. For now, the 21 day weather forecast Dorset Met Office guidance points to above-average temperatures and below-average rainfall for the first half of the period.

Temperature trend2–4°C above average

Rain riskLow until day 8–10
Will it rain in Dorset this week?

Rain is unlikely for most of the ten days. A weak front may brush the county on Saturday, bringing a brief light shower, but amounts will be small and most places stay dry.

Is the weather in Dorset suitable for a beach trip?

Yes, especially from mid-morning onwards. Early fog along the Jurassic Coast clears quickly. Sea temperatures are still cool, so a wetsuit is advisable for swimming.

How does this compare with the weather for Dorset next 14 days?

The first ten days are drier and warmer than average. The weather for Dorset next 14 days shows a shift towards more cloud and occasional rain after day 10, but no prolonged unsettled spell is expected.
