Dorset weather, as it happens.

We’re building a sharper view of the weather across Dorset — live station observations, changing skies, curious records and a few things we’re keeping under cloud cover for now.

There’s more on the horizon.

This is the quiet bit before the weather front arrives. Here’s a small glimpse of what we’re assembling.

01 Near-live

Weather, without the wait.

Fresh observations from our own Dorset station, presented clearly and updated as conditions change.

02 Look outside

Watch the sky turn.

Live camera views and time-lapse moments for the days when one forecast icon simply won’t do.

03 Deep history

Every gust leaves a trace.

Rainfall, pressure, extremes and long-running records — made useful, not just buried in a spreadsheet.

04 Coming later

Dorset weather in your pocket.

New apps, alerts and other clever bits are in the workshop. We’ll share more when they’re ready for the elements.

Too curious to wait?

The live dashboard is already gathering observations. It’s an early look, so expect the occasional loose wire and rain cloud.
