Elie is seeing a settled, dry spell this afternoon with hazy sunshine, as shown in the live forecast above. For the Fife coastal village and its neighbours Earlsferry and Colinsburgh, it’s a calm autumn day with light winds off the Forth.
What is the outlook for the next few days?
High pressure is holding firm across eastern Scotland, meaning Elie stays dry through the middle of the week. Overnight lows will dip toward 6°C with patchy mist forming near the shore. By Thursday, a weak front may bring a few spots of rain inland, but the coast should remain largely dry. If you are checking weather in Elie 10 days ahead, the signal is for a gradual turn to more unsettled conditions by the weekend, though confidence is low.

AccuWeather Elie sources broadly agree on the dry theme, though they suggest a slightly higher chance of coastal drizzle late Friday. For the broader picture, the weather Elie hourly breakdown confirms a calm afternoon, with winds staying under 10 mph.
