Yesterday felt more like a spring day with 11 hours of strong sunshine, a UV level of 3.2, highest since the end of September and a maximum of 13.8C (at 14.05), which is 3.5C above the mean. However, the feel of the atmosphere was moderated by the still brisk northeast to north wind which pegged back the temperature. The drying, brisk wind and sunshine meant that the evaporation from plants and ground was 3.4mm, the greatest one day total since 30th August last year. Last night as the skies stayed mainly clear the thermometer dropped to 2.3C just after dawn.
This morning broke with more sunshine and although the barometric pressure had dropped by 8mb from its peak, there is promise of another sunny and dry day.
N.B. Now a complete range of new graphs for temperature and rainfall.
