How does Wells’ location affect its weather?
Being inland, Wells is often a few degrees warmer than coastal spots like Weston-super-Mare, but it can also be prone to fog in the valleys during autumn and winter. The Mendip Hills can create a rain shadow effect, meaning Wells sometimes stays drier than areas further north. For a comparison with a nearby city, see the Bristol Weather page.
