The thermometer struggled to reach a maximum of 4.1C on Saturday, due to the thick fog that only began to thin after 10.15 and not clear until just before 11.30. The thermometer rose above zero at 11.16 and reached a maximum of 4.1C at 13.54, which was 2.9C below the average, and then began to fall slowly until late afternoon. By 16.15 the thermometer read zero, followed by -1.0C at 16.50, -2.0C at 17.35, -3.0C at 18.28, -4.0C at 19.38 and -5.0C at 21.00. Thereafter the temperature slowly continued dropping to reach a minimum of -6.8C at 08.00 on Sunday.
The UV level rose a fraction again with a reading of 0.8, the highest since 20th November. The anemometer just occasionally was stirred to move, but very slowly wit a maximum speed pf just 7mph, with the air movement from the east, not seen from this quadrant since the beginning of December.
Sunday dawned mostly clear, some minimal areas of wispy, thin cloud. The ridge of high pressure continued to build during the past twenty-four hours with a pressure of 1036.4mb at 08.00, which was the highest barometric pressure since 19th March.
