Cornwall’s weather today is shaped by Atlantic systems, bringing a mix of mild, damp conditions and brighter interludes. The live forecast above shows the immediate outlook for coastal and inland spots.

What’s the typical pattern for Cornwall today?

South-westerly winds often push cloud and patchy rain across the peninsula, with clearer skies developing later. Temperatures are likely to be above freezing, and the far south-west tends to stay a few degrees milder than inland areas of the UK.

How do conditions vary across the region?

Coastal areas, including Newquay, frequently see stronger winds and a lower chance of frost compared to inland valleys. The north coast can be noticeably breezier than the sheltered south coast. For a detailed view, check the 10 day weather forecast UK or the UK weather hub for broader trends.
