There are a huge number of web sites connected with the weather around the world and below are a small number of sites which are either related to Orkney or give some help in understanding the Orkney weather.
The water level of the Durkadale Burn in Birsay. It can be argued that this burn is the nearest Orkney has to a small river. The water supply starts in the Birsay and Harray hills. It flows all year round and usually bursts its banks several times in the winter months after prolonged, heavy rain.
