Sidmouth’s weather today, based on the live forecast above, shows a largely dry and bright start for the Devon coast, with cloud building through the afternoon and a moderate chance of light showers by evening. Temperatures remain near seasonal averages for this time of year.
What’s the outlook for Sidmouth this week?
For Sidmouth, the coming days see a mix of sunny spells and occasional cloud, with the best of the brightness on Tuesday and Wednesday. Overnight lows dip to around 9°C, while daytime highs reach 14–15°C. The east-facing seafront may catch a freshening breeze, but inland spots like the Byes and Peak Hill will feel calmer. Rain is most likely late Thursday into Friday, so factor that in if you’re planning a walk along the Jurassic Coast path.
How does the weather compare for neighbours?
Along the coast, Sidmouth tends to be slightly milder than inland towns such as Honiton or Ottery St Mary, thanks to the sea’s moderating effect. If you’re heading west towards Exeter or east to Lyme Regis, expect similar conditions — though Lyme may see a little more cloud. For a broader view, our UK weather hub covers the region, and you can check the 10 day weather forecast UK for longer-term planning.
