No wind to turn air over

Yet another dull, dark and gloomy day on Monday with yet again no sunshine. The air was stagnant for many hours with the anemometer only very occasionally slowly turning with the strongest movement logged at 7mph and from the SE.

It was another cold day with the thermometer not moving all day with a maximum of 3.3C being 3.7C below average. Just after 16.00 the temperature began to ease downwards to produce a minimum of 0.7C, which was 0.6C below the average.

Tuesday began just as the previous three day with heavy, dark low cloud and no air movement to disturb the cloud.

The centre of the anticyclone is now just north of the Canary Islands so any air movement will come from the west or west-northwest.

We have now experienced thirteen consecutive dry days.
