Windrush Weather

Appalling day on Sunday – best forgotten weatherise!

With mist and very low cloud all day and light drizzle around midday, Sunday was a dreadful day. The wind continued from the northeast, still brisk. For the first time since December 25th 2021 no evaporation was recorded due to the very high humidity again and light drizzle.

The brisk wind meant windchill was a factor again so that it felt more like 1C outside for much of the day.

The thermometer struggled to reach 3.8C, being 4.3C below the average and dropped to 2.8C just after midnight at 00.04. It then did an about turn and began to rise again read 4.1C at 08.00 on Monday. The diurnal range of just 1.0C was exceptional.

Monday barely dawned due to the persistent low cloud so the day arrived gloomy with the wind still persisting from the Northeast.
