As the high-pressure builds again over the country the quiet, dry spell continues. The last few days have seen little wind with many hours of still conditions, especially overnight when on two occasions gossamer three driving in the air have locked u my anemometer. Maximum gusts have on two days just reached double figures, 11mph on the 15th and 10mph on the 16th.
After a dull day on Monday, Tuesday saw almost continuous sunshine amounting to 9.75 hours. However, the wind having veered into the north tempered the temperature with a maximum of 18.1C in the strong sunshine, just 0.6C below average.
Wednesday arrived with bright sunshine after dawn that raised the minimum of 2.5C, that occurred at 07.00, to 4.9C at 08.00
