Pressure and weather in Kenilworth
Kenilworth sits in the English Midlands on gently rolling ground within the River Avon's catchment, roughly equidistant from the Irish Sea and the North Sea and about as continental as British geography allows, which is not very. The barometer here is governed almost entirely by the North Atlantic storm track. From October through February, depressions spin off the jet stream near Iceland and cross the country in a procession, each one lowering the pressure over twelve to thirty hours and lifting it again behind the cold front; four or five in a fortnight is unremarkable. Being inland spares Kenilworth the worst of the wind, but it sees the same pressure signature as the coast. Summer is quieter, dominated by the Azores high extending a ridge northward, giving long flat spells punctuated by thundery breakdowns when hot continental air arrives from France. The most dramatic single events are the deep autumn and winter cyclones, the named storms, which can put the barometer below 970 hPa across the Midlands.
What this means for you
Back-to-back Atlantic depressions mean the pressure rarely settles for long between October and March. A barometric pressure forecast showing the next several days makes the pattern easier to plan around than any single reading.
