After the mist had cleared on Tuesday morning the sun came out for 5.3 hours and the UV level, at 0.8, was the highest since the beginning of December.
The intense anticyclone edged a little westwards but still dominated our weather, not only dry and sunny but for many hours the anemometer remained stationary with one maximum gust of just 5mph.
During Tuesday evening the thermometer initially went below zero at 18.55, for almost four hours, but as cloud encroached the temperature recovered above freezing at 22.52.
Wednesday morning saw thick fog replacing the blue skies with visibility reduced to 100m as thick cloud and moist air had drifted. The air is circulating around the high pressure bringing moist and warmer air from the Atlantic.
The maximum on Tuesday was 6.6C, just below average, whereas initially the thermometer dropped to -1.2C around 21.00 last night before recovering to 3.4C at 08.00 on Wednesday.
