Forecast

The weather in Ballyclare is affected by the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf Stream, which bring mild and wet air from the west. This leads to changes in barometric pressure. When low pressure systems arrive, rain and wind come with them. When high pressure systems dominate, the weather is usually dry and calm.

Ballyclare's elevation is around 100 meters above sea level, which means the air pressure is slightly lower than at sea level. The surrounding hills and valleys can trap air, making it harder for weather systems to move through. This leads to more variable pressure and weather.

In winter, Ballyclare's pressure tends to be lower due to more frequent low-pressure systems. This brings rain and strong winds. In summer, the pressure is usually higher, resulting in drier and calmer weather. Spring and autumn bring more variable pressure and weather.

Ballyclare has a maritime climate, which means it is mild and wet, with frequent changes in barometric pressure. This leads to a mix of rainy and dry days, making the weather hard to predict and always changing.
