Windrush Weather

Cooler westerly breeze sets in.

Saturday brought little sunshine with the cool westerly breeze gusting to 27mph, the strongest gust for a month. The maximum of 11.7C brought the coolest day for a week but still 3.7C above the average. Once again there was no overnight frost with the thermometer not sinking below 5.6C at 05.54, which was 4.0C above the average.

Sunday dawned a little brighter thanks to temporary ridge of high pressure that meant the cloud was more broken, higher and thinner. The barometric pressure had risen to 1028.4mb at 08.00, the highest since the 12th.
