Tuesday slowly deteriorated after a bright morning, the cloud built up early afternoon and light rain began to fall at 16.15 until 23.30. Another rain event started at 05.00 early on Wednesday. The daily rainfall amounted to 6.8mm that took the monthly total to 33.6mm against the average of 60.3mm.
It was a cool, day with the thermometer climbing above 14.8C, some 2.5C below my 40-year average and the coolest day since the 3rd. There was little drop in temperature overnight thanks to the thick cloud cover, a minimum of 12.3C was logged at 06.05 early Wednesday.
Wednesday struggled to dawn under the low, thick cloud and counting intermittent splashes of light rain. The centre of the depression early Wednesday was over the London area and the depression is rotation anticlockwise, as they do, throwing showers and longer rain episodes over our area.
