Eastbourne's weather plays an important part in our town's success as a holiday resort, with record-breaking sunshine.
We now have two weather stations. The first station is used for formal records which meet official Met Office standards.
The second, electronic weather station was installed in 2006 and feeds live weather reports to our website.

How to Read a Barometer
Barometers are instruments used to measure air pressure, so you can take readings to see how the pressure varies. Barometers do not indicate present weather conditions, but help you to forecast probable conditions 12 to 24 hours later, taking into consideration any changes in the direction of the wind.
You can download our advice leaflet in PDF format below which explains how to understand barometer readings.
