For Blagdon, the live forecast above shows the immediate conditions for this Somerset village on the southern edge of the Mendip Hills, with a largely settled pattern of cloud and clear spells expected through the coming days.

What does the BBC forecast for Blagdon look like today?

The BBC weather for Blagdon, drawing on Met Office data, indicates a dry start with variable cloud cover. As an inland settlement near Blagdon Lake and the A368, temperatures will feel cooler than along the Bristol Channel coast a few miles north-west. Winds remain light, so any early mist in the valley should lift by mid-morning.

How does Blagdon’s location affect its weather?

Blagdon sits in a hollow of the Mendip Hills, meaning it can trap overnight fog and frost more readily than nearby exposed ridges. The village lies roughly 10 miles south of Bristol, and weather patterns arriving from the west often break against the hills, giving Blagdon more cloud and slightly higher rainfall than the city. Both accuweather blagdon feeds and BBC data note this localised effect for anyone planning walks around the lake or the reservoir.

Will the weekend stay settled?

The 10-day forecast suggests high pressure will hold across the South West, keeping Blagdon largely dry through the weekend. Overnight lows may dip into single figures, so gardeners in the valley should watch for ground frost by Sunday morning. For the latest updates, bbc news local bulletins and weather bristol pages carry the same Met Office source data.

What is the best live feed for Blagdon weather?

The live forecast above refreshes directly from the Met Office, the same source used by BBC Weather. For alternative views, AccuWeather provides hourly breakdowns, but the official data remains the most reliable for local planning.

How does Blagdon compare to nearby Bristol?

Blagdon is typically 1–2°C cooler than Bristol overnight due to its valley position and higher elevation. Daytime temperatures are similar, though the hills can generate extra cloud cover that keeps conditions slightly more subdued.

Is fog common in Blagdon?

Yes. Blagdon Lake and the surrounding valleys create ideal conditions for radiation fog, especially in autumn and winter. Visibility can drop below 100 m on still nights, so drivers on the A368 should check the live forecast above before setting out.
