What is the typical weather pattern for Broughshane?

Broughshane sits near the Slemish foothills, which means it can be cloudier and slightly wetter than coastal areas of County Antrim. Westerly winds bring the most rain, while easterly flows tend to produce drier, colder spells in winter. The live forecast above will show you whether today falls into the damp or settled category.

How should I prepare for a day in Broughshane?

Keep a light waterproof jacket handy even if the morning looks bright, as showers can develop over the hills with little warning. If you’re planning a walk, check the 10-day forecast for the UK to see if a longer dry spell is expected.
