Hawes, in the Yorkshire Dales, will see cloudy skies and patchy rain from the live forecast above, with temperatures slightly below the average for late spring. Strong gusts are possible on nearby fells.

What will the weather in Hawes be like this week?

According to the live forecast above, Hawes can expect a unsettled spell mid-week, with showery rain and brisk westerly winds. Conditions should brighten by Friday, though the weather in Hawes next week looks largely dry but cool, with overnight lows near 4°C. For a longer outlook, the bbc weather hawes 14 days feed suggests a slow warming trend into the following weekend.

Is it worth checking the forecast for Hawes before heading out?

Yes – the valley can trap cloud and mist while the tops stay clear. If you’re planning walks on the Pennine Way or around Hardraw Force, always check the weather hawes 14 days trend for any sudden shifts. The weather hawes tomorrow detail from the live forecast above shows a chance of drizzle, so pack a waterproof.

Does Hawes get more rain than nearby towns?

Yes – Hawes sits in a rain-shadow zone but still averages about 1,200 mm annually, notably wetter than Leyburn or Bedale. The surrounding fells force moisture up, meaning drizzle can linger all day.

Can I rely on the BBC Weather 14-day forecast for Hawes?

The bbc weather hawes 14-day outlook is useful for spotting trends but becomes unreliable beyond day 7, especially in this hilly terrain. Check the live forecast above for the most accurate 48-hour window.

Is the A684 over the Buttertubs Pass safe in strong wind?

No – that exposed road can be dangerous in gusts over 40 mph. The weather hawes 14 days detail from the live forecast above should warn of high winds, but always call the local highways authority for real-time updates.
