Windrush Weather

More glorious sunshine

Thursday brought us another 9.6 hours of glorious sunshine and, although the wind had veered into the east, it was a warm day with a peak of 21.6C, which was 3C above average.

The breeze easing from north east to east during the morning was very light with a maximum gust of just 11mph when for much of the day there was little movement. The UV level for the last four days has weakened and rated as ‘moderate’.

The clear overnight sky allowed much warmth to radiate into the atmosphere with a minimum of 7.8C at 06.03 Friday morning. This was 1.5C below average but 4C warmer than the previous very cool night.

Friday saw the sun shining brightly as it climbed above the horizon and beginning to dispel the fog that had briefly formed at dawn in the River Og valley.
