For Bishop’s Cleeve, the live forecast above shows the immediate outlook for this Gloucestershire village, nestled on the western edge of the Cotswolds just north of Cheltenham. Expect a mix of cloud and clear spells, with conditions largely driven by the prevailing westerly flow across the Severn Vale.
What is the weather like in Bishop’s Cleeve today?
Bishop’s Cleeve sits inland, sheltered from the worst of the Atlantic weather by the Welsh mountains, but it can still feel breezy across the open farmland to the north. The live forecast above gives the most accurate hour-by-hour picture, but generally, the village sees temperatures a degree or two cooler than Cheltenham town centre due to its elevation. Rain, when it arrives, often comes from the west, moving across the Severn Estuary and up the M5 corridor.
How does the local geography affect the forecast?
Being on the edge of the Cotswold escarpment, Bishop’s Cleeve can experience localised cloud and hill fog, especially in the morning. The Cleeve Hill area to the east often traps low cloud, which can linger while the valley floor clears. This makes the UK weather hub and the Bristol Weather page useful for tracking systems moving inland.

Rainfall in Bishop’s Cleeve is typically light to moderate, with the heaviest showers often arriving from the Bristol Channel.

The met office weather bishops cleeve page also provides detailed warnings if heavy rain is expected.
Is Bishop’s Cleeve prone to flooding?
The village sits near the River Swilgate, a tributary of the Avon. Localised flooding can occur after prolonged rain, particularly on low-lying roads near the watercourse. Check the live forecast above for persistent rain warnings.
