How should I read the live forecast above for Haverhill?

What is Haverhill’s typical climate through the seasons?
Haverhill has a maritime climate typical of East Anglia. Winters are cool, with lows around freezing to low single digits, and frost is common. Summers are warm but rarely hot, with highs in the upper teens to low twenties. Rainfall is spread fairly evenly, though spring and early summer tend to be drier. Westerly winds bring most weather systems, but the area is relatively sheltered compared with western Britain.
Does the local geography affect Haverhill’s weather?
Haverhill lies in the Stour Valley, which offers some shelter from the strongest winds. Its inland position means it misses the moderating effect of the coast, so nights can be colder than in seaside towns. The surrounding farmland does not produce significant local effects, though early morning fog can form in the valley during autumn.
When is the best time to visit Haverhill and what should I pack?
The best months are May to September, when temperatures are mild and daylight long. Pack layers: a light jacket for summer evenings, a warmer coat and waterproof for other seasons. Comfortable walking shoes are useful for exploring the town and surrounding countryside. Even in summer, a raincoat is wise.
