South Devon weather conditions & forecasts

The South Hams area of South Devon enjoys one of the mildest year round climates on mainland Britain, protected from the northerly winds by the hills of Dartmoor with seas and beaches warmed by the Gulf Stream.

 

There is plenty of information available - the nearest large weather reporting stations to my location (Malborough, near Salcombe and Kingsbridge) are at Plymouth (University), Haytor on Dartmoor and Newton Ferrers-Noss Mayo.

 

Below are links to some of the sites that provide South Devon weather forecasts, surf and sea conditions, tide times and webcams showing the current situation in the area:
