Does Herstmonceux get much fog?

How reliable are BBC weather forecasts for Herstmonceux?

BBC weather relies on Met Office data, so forecasts are generally trustworthy for the next 48 hours. Like all short-range models, they become less precise beyond day 3 – always compare with the live forecast above. For breaking updates, check BBC News weather for the region.
