Blaina, in the heart of the Blaenau Gwent valley, sees a cool and damp outlook from the live forecast above, with low cloud lingering over the surrounding hillsides and a light south-westerly breeze. This inland spot, tucked between Ebbw Vale and Abertillery, often catches more mist than towns closer to the coast, especially as autumn deepens.
What is the weather like in Blaina today?
The live forecast above shows a subdued day for Blaina, with temperatures holding steady in the low teens and a high chance of drizzle. The valley setting means the hills to the north and east trap moisture, keeping skies grey for much of the morning. A brief brighter spell may arrive by late afternoon, but don’t expect a dramatic shift—this is typical for a community nestled in the South Wales coalfield.
Will it feel colder than nearby towns?
Blaina’s elevation, at roughly 300 metres above sea level, often makes it a degree or two chillier than Ebbw Vale or Brynmawr, especially when the wind picks up. The live forecast above suggests a moderate breeze from the south-west, which can funnel through the valley and add a raw edge to the air.
