The nagging north-easterlies have been persistent for the past two days and nights with little variation in strength. They fall a little overnight and just before dawn pick up again. Yesterday was another day without sunshine but due to the drier air the evaporation for the day has increased as the land surfaces begin to dry out. The maximum temperature yesterday was 8.2C, which is 2C below average with a maximum gust of wind of 31mph at 12.52.
This morning the sun is just breaking above the horizon as I write this at 08.00 with just thin cloud. The wind is again gusting to over 20mph giving a wind chill factor in that it feels more like 0.5C when the thermometer currently reads 4.4C.
