What is the outlook for Overton this week?
Overton, situated in the Test Valley, often sees conditions a little cooler than the coast, with mist or fog lingering on autumn and winter mornings. The live forecast above shows the main trends for the coming days: any early low cloud should break to leave sunny spells, though cloud may thicken from the west later. Rain is most likely overnight and into the early morning, especially during the middle of the week.
How does Overton’s weather compare with nearby towns?
Unlike Basingstoke to the east or the exposed North Wessex Downs to the south-west, Overton sits in a sheltered valley, which can make frosts more frequent on clear nights. Breezes are generally lighter than on the Hampshire coast, but the live forecast above captures any notable changes in wind strength for the village itself.
