Watford lies in the valley of the River Colne. The Chiltern Hills are to the west, and the London Basin is to the east. This landscape affects air movement, influencing the pressure. The hills can block or redirect air masses, changing the pressure.
The surrounding landscape also impacts local weather patterns. Moist air from the Atlantic Ocean meets the hills, resulting in rainfall. The London Basin's urban heat island effect can also influence Watford's weather.
