The sunshine on Wednesday was limited to the morning amounting to just 5.5 hours as cloud built up during the afternoon, with occasional light showers and in the late afternoon, drizzle. The total precipitation for the day was just 1mm.
It was a much cooler day with the maximum of 22.2C being 1.3C above average and 6C down on the Tuesday peak. The past night was very cool with the thermometer sinking to 7.8C, which was 3.7C below average and 7C below the previous mild night.
In the early hours radiation fog formed on the River Og valley, due to the low temperature, that at dawn was thick. However, under the influence of almost continuous sunshine this had evaporated by 07.00.
Thursday is under the influence of a temporary, limited ridge of high pressure with the barometric reading 1018.7mb at 08.00 so the shower activity should be limited.
