Check the live forecast above before heading out today in Larne, then scan the bullet points below for a concise breakdown of what to expect from the Met Office data and other trusted sources.
What does the Met Office say about Larne today?
The live forecast above gives the most precise hour-by-hour picture for Larne, but the general theme from the Met Office is changeable conditions with a mix of cloud and brighter spells. Shower risk varies through the day, so plan around the rain-free windows.
- Expect coastal cloud to break up by late morning, allowing some sunshine – though a brisk westerly wind will keep it feeling cool.
- Afternoon rain bands may push in from the north-west, so if you’re looking at weather in Larne tomorrow, a fresher, more settled day is likely.
- For walkers or commuters, the xc weather Larne wind charts show gusts around 25 mph, so factor that in near the harbour.
- The Met Office’s 14‑day trend suggests no prolonged settled spell, but the 14 day weather forecast Larne Met Office outlook currently points to a drier end to the week.
Is the AccuWeather or BBC forecast different from the Met Office for Larne?
AccuWeather Larne and BBC Weather Larne often use the same raw data, but their front-end algorithms handle precipitation timing differently – check both if you need ultra‑local timing for a specific hour.
- BBC Weather Larne tends to round temperatures up slightly, while the Met Office is stricter on exact readings – the live forecast above uses the official data.
- AccuWeather Larne includes a “RealFeel” metric that accounts for wind chill, which can be 3–4 °C lower than the air temperature on a breezy day in Larne.
- For weekend planning, cross‑reference the live forecast with the 10‑day outlook on our 10 Day Weather Forecast UK page.
What time is sunrise and sunset in Larne today?
Sunrise is around 05:25 BST and sunset near 21:35 BST. The long daylight hours are typical for late spring, so you have plenty of time to enjoy any brighter spells between showers.
Will the wind be strong enough to affect the ferry from Larne?
Westerly gusts of 25–30 mph may cause slight delays for smaller vessels. Check the live forecast above and the P&O Ferries app before travelling; conditions usually improve after the early‑afternoon peak.
Is UV high enough to need sunscreen in Larne today?
UV index is moderate (around 5) during any sunny intervals, so fair‑skinned individuals should use SPF 30 if outside for more than an hour. Cloud cover reduces exposure, but don’t rely on cloud alone for protection.
