Forecast

Here's the description of Dumbarton's weather in simple terms for a 12-year-old:

Dumbarton's weather is often cloudy and rainy due to low air pressure from the Atlantic Ocean. The town's location near the coast means it gets a lot of moisture from the sea.

Dumbarton's low-lying valley geography traps cold air, making it harder for warm air to reach, keeping air pressure low.

In winter, cold air from the Arctic brings low pressure and strong winds. Summer brings slightly higher pressure and more sunshine, but it's still cool and rainy.

Dumbarton has a maritime climate, which means it's influenced by the ocean. This leads to mild winters and cool summers, with air pressure staying relatively low throughout the year.
