Windrush Weather

Storm Deirdre eases away after memorable day

Saturday brought us 10 hours of rainfall amounting to 13.8mm, the wettest day this month.

The thermometer hovered around 3C for most of Saturday but rose late afternoon to a maximum of 7.6C before falling away overnight as the cloud cleared to a minimum of 2.1C.

Due to the continuous cloud during daylight hours no sunshine occurred and the UV level was 0. The strong winds, thanks to storm Deirdre, gusted to a peak of 36mph.

Sunday arrived with clear skies and the promise of sunshine when the sun gets up!
