Given that Rotherham is next door to Sheffield would you really expect the weather to be that much different?

It might change a bit if global warming is true - we could have the Costa del Maltby.

The "rain shadow" when we've got westerly winds doesn't really kick in until you get to Donny.

And seeing as this week the weather is coming from the North or North East the Pennines won't make any difference.

Amatuer climatology lesson over.
