Weather Summary December 2021 1st January 2022

During the first 10 days of December there were spells of wet and windy weather as a series of Lows moved across the UK. On the 7th and 8th one such Low was the named storm “Barra” which brought gales across the UK including SW England. Brief transient ridges and colder northly winds, between the Lows, caused the coldest temperatures of the month. After the 10th, High pressure developed over England, resulting in a dry period lasting for about 10 days. During this period skies were often cloudy and despite a period of easterly winds temperatures only reduced slowly so that the district remained frost free. Low pressure then displaced the High, returning unsettled weather to the district for the remainder of December. Christmas in particular was a very wet and extremely dull day. Strong and gusty SW winds brought exceptionally mild air from the Azores and Canaries across England which produced new record high temperature values for the end of December.

In terms of statistics (30 year averages 1981 to 2010):
December typically sees around 13 “wet” and 13 dry days, but with the rainfall total of between 100 to 120mm being slightly above average, it is not surprising there were a few more wet days than normal. The wettest day of the month was the 25th with around 30 to 35mm across the district. There were three other rather wet days with over 10mm of rain, 3rd, 7th and 27th.

The temperature for the month averaged out at 9.2 Celsius which is over two degrees above average. The warmest day was on the 29th when temperatures rose to almost 16 Celsius. The coldest morning was the 2nd when minimum temperatures ranged from 1 or 2 Celsius near the coast, to just below freezing inland but as low as minus 2 Celsius in Netherton. Typically there are 4 night air frosts in December but areas near the coast and the Teign estuary were frost free.

The sea temperature at the Dawlish Wave Buoy remained around 11 Celsius during December.

Sunshine, estimated at around 35 hours, was about half the average.


In summary, compared to the 1981 to 2010 average, December 2021 was milder, wetter and cloudier than average.

Weather Summary Autumn 2021 updated 2 Dec 2021

The mean temperature was 12.8 Celsius, which was marginally above the 1981-2010 average of 12.3 Celsius. Sunshine was around 320 hours, slightly below the long term average of 356 hours. The rain total of around 290mm was above the long term average of 240mm. There were, however, fewer days with 1mm or more of rain 28 compared to the average of 41 and the number of dry days was also above average at 48 days conpared to 35 days. Sunshine totals were a little below the average of 356 hours.
This fits with the idea of a warmer climate producing cloudier skies and higher rain totals despite a lower number of wet days.

Weather Summary November 2021 1st December 2021

November 2021 had an unusual number of dry days and a correspondingly low rainfall total.

The month started unsettled due to a deep low pressure centre over Scotland. This centre filled and moved east as high pressure built in from the west. The high gave way temporarily allowing a weak cold front to move across the district overnight on the 6/7th. This was followed by milder SW winds between 8th and 10th during which time the highest temperatures of the month were recorded. Low pressure moved across the North of Britain with the associated fronts bringing some light rain to the district on the 11th and 12th. Pressure then remained fairly high right through to the 25th with only weak weather fronts crossing the district and producing some light rain on the 15th 16th 20th and 21st. After the 26th a deep area of low pressure over Fair Isle moved due south over the East of Scotland and England. This was the named storm Arwen which brought very cold northerly winds southwards along with storm force winds. In Dawlish and Teignmouth winds reached about 50mph in the early hours of the 27th but over the hills winds were much stronger and some trees and branches were brought down. The cold northerly winds fell light overnight producing a widespread frost on the mornings of the 28th and 29th before milder air and a little rain arrived on the 30th.

A chart sequence for November 2021 can be viewed here.

In terms of statistics:

Rainfall totals of 20 to 25mm were about a third or less of the average November rainfall and there were at least 15 dry days. There were several other days with only a small amount of rain. The wettest day of the month was the 26th and even then only around 7mm was recorded.

The temperature for the month averaged out close to the long-term value of 9 Celsius. The warmest day was on the 8th when temperatures rose to near 17 Celsius. The coldest morning was the 29th when many places had a frost. Lowest values ranged from just above zero near the coast to minus one Celsius inland but as low as minus two and half degrees in some rural valleys. The Netherton area for instance recorded 7 night frost compared to one in the Teignmouth and Dawlish area.

The sea temperature at the Dawlish Wave Buoy eased down to 11 Celsius from 15 Celsius at the start of the month.

Sunshine at around 70 hours was a little below average.

In summary, compared to the 1981 to 2010 average, November 2021 had much lower rainfall totals, near average temperature and slightly below average sunshine.

Weather Summary October 2021 1st November 2021

October 2021 was milder than average but had around twice the quantity of rainfall despite the number of dry and wet days being close to average.

October started unsettled with low pressure across Scotland and associated weather fronts sweeping across the UK. Following another low pressure centre, which moved across Wales on the 5th, there was a change to drier weather as high pressure built across the country. The mainly dry weather lasted until the 17th when Atlantic low pressure again started to bring weather fronts in from the west. The 19th and 20th were particularly wet and this was partially due to storm “Aurore”. The storm, named by Meteo France, moved quickly east and brought gales to some coastal areas of Southern England and Northern France. After two more short dry intervals the month ended as it started, wet and windy.

A chart sequence for October 2021 can be viewed here

In terms of statistics (30 year average based on 1981 to 2010):

Rainfall totals were around twice the average with many places recording as much as 200mm. There were seven days when 10mm or more of rain fell which is about double the average number of days and there were five days when totals reached at least 20mm. For most the period with the highest rain total was the 19th and 20th when typical rainfall totals were around 70mm. Despite the high rainfall totals there were around 14 dry days which is similar to the 30 year average.

The average temperature for the month was between 13 and 14 Celsius, about a degree above the long term average. The warmest day, with a temperature of around 21 Celsius, occurred on the 10th. The coldest morning was on the 14th in the Dawlish area but on the 22nd in the Teignmouth area. Netherton got as low as 1 Celsius on the 22nd and it is likely that some of the valleys bordering the Teign had a touch of ground frost.

The sea temperature at the Dawlish Wave Buoy eased down to 15 Celsius from 16 Celsius at the start of the month.

Sunshine at around 100 hours was a little below average.

In summary, compared to the 1981 to 2010 average, October 2021 was milder with higher rainfall totals despite an average number of dry days

Weather Summary September 2021 1st October 2021

September 2021 was warmer and cloudier but despite higher than average rainfall totals there were fewer “rain days”.

High pressure, initially centred over Scotland, brought a week of fine weather to most of the UK at the start of the month. The High drifted East, turning winds more southerly, which allowed warmer air to spread from France producing some very warm temperatures across SW England. This was not to last, however, as Low pressure in the Bay of Biscay moved towards SW England leading to a period of heavy thundery rain. Although a weak ridge of higher pressure developed on the 11th this soon gave way allowing a series of fairly weak weather fronts to bring showery spells of rain across the district for the middle part of the month. High pressure developed again after the 19th and this brought almost a week of mostly fine weather when afternoon temperatures were reliably over 20 Celsius. The High declined after the 26th as a spell of Autumnal wet and windy weather swept across the district.

In terms of statistics:
Rainfall for the month was around 70mm in the Dawlish and Teignmouth area, which was above the long term average (LTA) of about 60mm. There were around 19 dry days (LTA 17), 6 days with rainfall of 1mm or more (LTA 9), 3 days with 10mm or more of rain (LTA 2) and one day with over 20mm of rain. Roughly two thirds of the month rain fell on the 27th and 28th, the 28th being the wettest day with over an inch (25mm) in most places. Once again the majority of the rainfall occurred during a relatively few days, the 9th being the other notably wet day.

The temperature for the month averaged out at 16 Celsius which is about a degree above the 30 year average (1981-2010). The lowest value for most parts occurred on the 28th or 29th with temperature lows typically between 6 and 9 Celsius. The warmest values of between, 23 Celsius near the coast and 27 Celsius inland, were recorded on the 6th.

The sea temperature at the Dawlish Wave Buoy was 18 Celsius for most of the month dipping to 17 Celsius at the end of September.

Sunshine was a little below average with around 150 hours compared to the average of 161 hours.

Weather Summary Summer 2021 updated 2 Sep 2021

The mean temperature was 16.8 Celsius, which was marginally above the 1981-2010 average of 16.6 Celsius. Sunshine was around 560 hours, well below the long term average of 657 hours. The rain total of around 240mm was well above the long term average of 150mm. There were, however, only a few more days with 1mm or more of rain than the average of 23 and the number of dry days was close to the average of 54 days. This fits with the idea of a warmer climate producing cloudier skies and higher rain totals despite a similar number of wet days.

Weather Summary August 2021 updated 2 Sept 2021

Low pressure dominated the weather patterns during the first ten days of August. Winds were light initially until a rather deep area of Low pressure moved across Ireland on the 5th and 6th. The Low then lingered over Scotland for several days with its associated weather fronts crossing the district, resulting in a wet and windier spell of weather. Despite the unsettled weather, daily rainfall totals were not especially large and there were some sunny periods too. After the 10th, pressure rose a little but weak weather systems brought further sporadic rain. On the 21st a more active weather front produced what was for most of the district the wettest day of the month. A strong build in pressure followed this front and High pressure came to dominate the weather pattern for the remainder of the month.

In terms of statistics:
Rainfall for the month was around 30 to 40mm in the Dawlish and Teignmouth area, which was below the long term average (LTA) of 54mm. There were around 20 dry days (LTA 16), 7 days with rainfall of 1mm or more (LTA 8) but there were no days with 10mm or more of rain (LTA 2).
The average temperature for the month was 16.7 Celsius, slightly below the LTA of 17.2 Celsius. Lowest values for most parts occurred on either the 3rd or the 10th with temperature lows typically between 8 and 10 Celsius. The warmest values of between 22 and 25 Celsius were recorded between the 21st and 26th, the 26th seeing values of around 25 Celsius in Dawlish.
The sea temperature at the Dawlish Wave Buoy was between 17 and 18 Celsius throughout August.
Sunshine was below average with around 170 to 190 hours compared to the average of 210 hours. There were only five days with over eight hours of sunshine recorded at Teignmouth.


In summary, compared to the 1981 to 2010 average, August 2021 was drier, cooler and cloudier.

Weather Summary July 2021 compiled 1st August 2021

Despite a fine start, with high pressure over SW England, July soon turned unsettled as low pressure and associated weather fronts moved in from the Atlantic. Later, on the 5th and through the 6th, a rather deep low moved East along the English Channel bringing the wettest day of the month for most of the district. A brief ridge of higher pressure followed, although with a few showers in the northwest breeze. A rather weak weather system brought some further rain between the 10 and 12th. A largely fine, warm and even hot spell followed between the 13th and 22nd as high pressure developed across the UK. Temperatures rose steadily during this period reaching between 27 and 30 Celsius on the 21st. The fine weather did not last as low pressure moved in from the Atlantic bringing rain at times from the 23rd. On the night of the 29th into the 30th a storm, named Evert by the Met Office, moved close to the north coast of Cornwall and into the Bristol Channel. This brought unseasonal gales to parts of SW England and a showery north-westerly to end the month.

In terms of statistics:

Rainfall for the month was around 90mm in the Dawlish and Teignmouth area, which was double the long term average (LTA). There were between 14 and 18 dry days (LTA 20 days), 13 days with rainfall of 1mm or more (LTA of 7 days) and there was between 2 and 4 days with 10mm or more of rain (LTA 1 or 2 days).

The average temperature for the month was 18 Celsius, slightly above the LTA of 17.3 Celsius. Lowest values were in the first week of the month, for most parts this occurred on the 5 or 6th with a low of 11 Celsius although some inland areas dipped to 9 Celsius. The highest values of between 27 and 31 Celsius were recorded on the 21st which was at the end of a week with afternoon temperatures of over 25 Celsius.

The sea temperature at the Dawlish Wave Buoy started the month at 16 Celsius and ended near 17 Celsius. Sea temperatures reached over 20 Celsius between the 16th and 27th when winds were light and the weather hot and sunny. The sea temperature reached an exceptionally warm 22 Celsius between the 18th and 22nd

Sunshine was estimated to be close to or slightly below the long term average of 225 hours.

In summary, compared to the 1981 to 2010 average, July was warmer and wetter but with near or below average sunshine.

Weather Summary June 2021 compiled 010721

June 2021 was warmer, cloudier and had higher rainfall totals but marginally more dry days when compared to the 1981 to 2010 average.

Low pressure moved North over SW England early in the month bringing a little rain on the 2nd. From the 3rd, higher pressure developed across SW England and despite a series of weak weather systems that moved across the district, the weather was mostly dry up to the 18th. Low pressure from the Atlantic combined with a thundery plume from France to give three days of rain from the 19th. This was followed by a temporary ridge of higher pressure before low pressure moved from the North Sea across southern England and into the Bay of Biscay. The low then brought another thundery plume of moist rain bearing air across SW England leading to an unusually wet 48 hours on the 27th and 28th when around 50mm of rain fell.

In terms of statistics:

Rainfall for the month totalled around 100mm in the Dawlish and Teignmouth area, that’s about twice the long term average (LTA) of around 50mm. There were around 20 dry days (LTA 19), 7 days with rainfall of 1mm or more (LTA 8), but as many as 4 days with at least 10mm of rain (LTA 2) and in places there were 2 or 3 days when 20mm or more of rain was recorded.

The temperature for the month averaged out between 15 and 16 Celsius, which was slightly above normal. Lowest values were on the 4th when coastal temperatures dipped to around 7 or 8 Celsius and inland areas to between 3 and 6 Celsius. The highest temperature, between 24 and 27 Celsius, was recorded on the 14th in most places, but a few locations had their highest temperature on the 30th.

The sea temperature at the Dawlish Wave Buoy warmed to 16 Celsius from mid-month.

Long term average sunshine is around 220 hours but the estimated value for June 2021 was below normal at around 170 hours.


In summary, compared to the 1981 to 2010 average, June was warmer, cloudier and had higher rainfall totals but marginally more dry days.

Weather Summary May 2021 1st June 2021

Early in May and for the last five or six days of the month, High Pressure brought fine and latterly some fairly warm weather across the district. For most of the month, however, Low Pressure dominated the weather patterns as a series of depressions moved across the UK. On the 3rd, 9th and 20th the depressions were unusually deep for the time of year. The associated weather systems brought periods of wet and at times windy weather across the Dawlish and Teignmouth district. Most notable was the wet period between the 8th and the 15th. On just two days, the 12 and 13th, enough rain fell to equal the average for a normal May.

Weather Summary April 2021 010421

High pressure dominated the weather patterns during April bringing a lot of dry and sunny weather. After a warm start, with temperatures around 17 or 18 Celsius on the 1st, cold air and chilly winds from the east and north resulted in much lower temperatures for the remainder of the month. Overnight clear skies also resulted in more frequent frosts. Despite the High pressure there were some weak weather fronts that crossed the district during the first half of the month bringing a scattering of light showers. Towards the end of the month low pressure moved south across the UK bringing some further showery rain across the district.

In terms of statistics:
Rainfall for the month totalled between 3 and 5mm in the Dawlish and Teignmouth area which is exceptionally low compared to the long term average (LTA) of around 60mm. There were between 24 and 27 dry days (LTA about 17), only 1 or 2 days with rainfall of 1mm or more (LTA 10) and there were no truly wet days. The highest totals depended on where showers fell and amounted to only 2 or 3mm. Following on from a drier than average March the amount of water in the soil has dropped below about 30% across much of SW England.

The temperature for the month averaged out around 8 Celsius, that’s over a degree colder than average. The highest temperature of between 17 and 18 Celsius was on the 1st in most places. Lowest values were on the 7th when inland temperatures dipped to between minus 1 and minus 4 Celsius, whereas a few places right on the coast remained near or slightly above freezing. The average number of April air frosts in Teignmouth is 1 night every other year, but inland frosts are more common. Inland in Dawlish, however, there were around 8 nights with an air frost and in Netherton as many as 15 frosty nights. There was a risk of ground frost on between 12 and 25 nights illustrating the chilly nature of the month.

From the 22nd to the 26th Easterly winds became very strong and produced rough seas for Dawlish and Teignmouth. The sea temperature at the Dawlish Wave Buoy warmed a degree to 11 Celsius by the end of the month.

Long term average sunshine is around 186 hours in Teignmouth. The electronically recorded value across the district was between 240 and 265 hours which fits quite well with the Met Office climate assessment that sunshine across SW England was about 40% above normal.


In summary, April 2021 was exceptionally dry, much sunnier and also colder than the long term average.

Weather Summary March 2021 1st April 2021

High pressure dominated the weather pattern for most of March 2021, resulting in drier conditions than average, slightly warmer and sunnier days but with a fair number of frosty nights. It was not all fine weather of course, a weak weather front moved into the High pressure on the 3rd bringing a little rain. Low pressure took control on the 10th leading to an unsettled and rather windy spell which lasted until the 14th. Winds between North and East returned as High pressure again took control before the winds turned to between South and West after the 24th. This change brought milder air and some rain and was followed by a dry but windy period for the 27th and 28th as higher pressure developed across the SW of England.

A chart sequence for March 2021 can be viewed here.

In terms of statistics:
Rainfall for the month totalled between 35 and 40mm in the Dawlish and Teignmouth area which was well below the long term average (LTA) of nearly 70mm. Rainfall totals were a little higher in the Netherton and Kingsteignton area where 50mm was recorded. There were around 7 wet days which is below the LTA of 11 wet days and there were at least 21 dry days (LTA around 15 days). The wettest day was the 12th with between 12mm to 16mm of rain recorded in most places. There was only one day when the rainfall total was over 10mm.

The temperature for the month averaged out between 8 and 8.5 Celsius which was slightly above LTA of 7.9 Celsius. The highest temperature of between 16 and 17 Celsius was on the 24th in most places although some inland areas had similar values on the 29th. The lowest temperature was on the 8th when inland values dipped to between minus 3 and minus 5 Celsius whereas some coastal locations were closer to zero. The average number of March frosts at Teignmouth is 1 night but in this March most places had between 2 and 4 night frosts and Netherton 5 nights when the temperature fell below zero Celsius.

The sea temperature at the Dawlish Wave Buoy warmed a degree to 10 Celsius by the end of the month.

Long term average sunshine is around 122 hours at Teignmouth. The electronically recorded value at Dawlish and Teignmouth was 170 to 180 hours which is probably an over estimate because other official sites in SW England show only slightly above average sunshine. The estimate for Teignmouth and Dawlish is around 130 hours of sunshine.

In summary, March 2021 was slightly milder, slightly sunnier and much drier than average.

Weather Summary February 2021 updated 010321

Despite two colder and drier spells, February ended up slightly milder and slightly wetter than average. Low pressure over Ireland and the South of England brought mild Southwest winds and rain across the Teignmouth and Dawlish district. From the 6th, as low pressure moved away over France, Easterly winds extended over the district resulting in a drier but cold period with frequent frosts. Atlantic frontal systems edged in from the West returning much milder South to Southwest winds and leading to a rather wet and unsettled period between the 14th and 20th with exceptionally mild temperatures up until the 25th. High pressure developed across SW England for the last few days of the month bringing chilly nights but warm and sunny days.

The wettest day was the 20th with around 15mm of rain recorded in many places and there was 2 or 3 days when rainfall totals were over 10mm.

The temperature for the month averaged out between 6 and 7 Celsius, fractionally above the LTA of 6.4 Celsius. The highest temperature of around 15 Celsius was on the 24th and the lowest, typically around minus 1 Celsius, was in the cold spell between the 6th and 13th. For most places the coldest morning was on the 10th although Netherton recorded minus 3 Celsius on the 6th. The average number of frosts at Teignmouth is 4 nights and although some coastal areas had fewer frosts, inland, there were as many as eight nights with an air frost..

The sea temperature at the Dawlish Wave Buoy started and ended the month around 9 Celsius having dipped to 7 Celsius in the middle of the month.

Long term average sunshine is around 84 hours at Teignmouth. The electronically recorded value at Dawlish and Teignmouth was 70 to 80 hours which compares fairly well with other locations in SW England which recorded slightly below average sunshine.

Weather Summary January 2021 1st Feb 2021

January was colder and slightly wetter than average. The month started cold with northerly winds and a few showers. High pressure to the west of Ireland moved across northern Scotland maintaining cold air across SW England producing several frosty nights. Despite weak weather systems moving south over the UK and displacing the high, cold but fairly dry weather continued until the 10th. Milder westerly winds brough a recovery in temperatures and mostly weak weather systems brought some rain or showers for a time around the middle of the month. On the 19th and 20th there was a wet and windy period associated with “Christoph” a Met Office named storm. Cold NW winds followed this storm and produced several more frosty nights between the 21st and 26th and even a little snow overnight 23rd into 24th. The return of another mild and wet spell brought the highest temperature of the month on the 28th before turning colder again at the end of the month.

A chart sequence for January 2021 can be viewed here

In terms of statistics:
Rainfall for the month totalled between 100mm and 130mm in the Dawlish and Teignmouth area, which was a little above the 30 year long term average (LTA) of around 95mm. There were roughly the same number of dry days and days with rain, around 13 of each which is similar to the LTA. The day with the most rain was the 20th with 25 to 32mm of rain recorded in many places. There were between 2 and 6 days when rainfall totals were over 10mm but just the one day with 20mm or more or rain. There was a little snow overnight 23rd/24th with a covering on some of the hills around the area.
The temperature for the month averaged out between 5 and 6 Celsius, a little lower than the LTA of 6.7 Celsius. The highest temperatures of around 15 Celsius were on the 28th and the lowest, typically between minus 2 and minus 4 Celsius, was on the 1st but in some places on the 10th. Netherton recorded almost minus 6 Celsius on the 1st. The average number of frosts at Teignmouth is 4 nights but most places around the area had at least 5 nights with an air frost and there were between 11 and 14 nights with a frost away from the coast.
The sea temperature at the Dawlish Wave Buoy was between 8 and 10 Celsius during the month.
Long term average sunshine is around 65 hours at Teignmouth. The electronically recorded value at Dawlish and Teignmouth was 35 and 42 hours respectively, which is probably an underestimate. There were 58 hours of sunshine recorded at the Exeter Met Office site. The Teignmouth Den sunshine figure is not currently available.
It was windy on several days especially on the 14th, 19th and particularly the 20th.

In summary, January 2021 was drier and colder in the first half, wetter and less cold in the second. For the month as a whole it was colder and wetter than average.
