Where is the driest area in the UK?

The driest area of the UK based on the climate is the South-West. South, because the south of the UK is closer to the equator than the North, the sun directs it's heat straight into the equator. This is because the earth is tilted slightly, and the equator is the imaginary line that is directly where the sun is in line with the earth. West, because lots of wind goes over the sea from the west and builds up water vapour and gets heavier, a bit like a cloud. They get to the high hills on the west and go higher to get past, then it mixes with other clouds and makes them so heavy that it starts raining, in the east. Less rain manages to get to the west because the hills are closer to the west.
