Coleford should prepare for a changeable day with cloud rolling in from the Severn Estuary, so keep a jacket handy. The live forecast above shows the detail, but expect the Forest of Dean’s inland position to keep temperatures a notch cooler than the wider Gloucestershire area.
What is the typical weather pattern for Coleford?
Coleford sits within the Forest of Dean, a high, wooded area that traps moisture and creates localised mist or low cloud, especially in the mornings. Summers are mild, winters chilly with occasional frost, and rainfall is fairly evenly spread through the year – the forest often gets its own microclimate compared to nearby towns like Monmouth or Chepstow.
How does the Forest of Dean affect the weather outlook?
The dense canopy and elevated ground (around 200m above sea level) mean Coleford can be noticeably cooler and wetter than the Severn plain. For a broader view, check the 10-day forecast for the UK or the Bristol weather page which often influences the region’s airflow.

Will it rain in Coleford today?
According to the live forecast above, expect some light rain or drizzle, especially in the afternoon. Coleford’s elevation means it often catches showers that bypass lower ground – a waterproof layer is sensible.
What about the weather in Coleford tomorrow?
Tomorrow’s pattern looks similar to today, with cloud and a few brighter intervals. Brief rain remains possible, so check the weather in coleford tomorrow section of the live forecast before heading out.
How reliable is the 14‑day forecast for Coleford?
