The live forecast above shows the current conditions for Horsforth, a suburb north-west of Leeds in West Yorkshire. The area typically sits a little cooler than the city centre, with a higher chance of low cloud spilling in from the Aire Valley.

What is the outlook for Horsforth today and this week?

The live forecast above gives the clearest picture for the next few hours. For the week ahead, Horsforth tends to follow the wider Leeds pattern, though its elevation means it can be a degree or two cooler overnight. Any weather warnings from the Met Office for West Yorkshire are particularly relevant here, as the suburb can catch heavier rain when bands push in from the west. For a longer view, check the 10 day weather forecast UK page, which covers Horsforth within the regional outlook.

How does Horsforth’s geography affect its weather?

Set on a rise above the River Aire, Horsforth often sees a little more wind than the city centre, and frost can linger on the edges of the town into late spring. The proximity to the Yorkshire Dales means cold northerly flows arrive quickly, while southerly winds bring milder but often damp conditions. This makes the UK weather hub a useful starting point for spotting any shifts before they reach the suburb.
