Windrush Weather

That nagging northeasterly gone – thank goodness!

The wind from the northeast continued all day on Saturday, once again depressing the daytime temperature and limiting the warmth to a maximum of 14.7C being 2.4C below the 39-year average. The low cloud hung around for much of the day and it wasn’t until just after 15.00 that the cloud began to break and much welcome sunshine began to develop. The peak temperature was logged at 17.47.

Saturday was another dry day but the thick cloud for much of the day meant a low UV level of 4.6, rated as ‘Moderate’.

The past three nights have produced similar minima, 8.0C, 8.0C and 7.9C at 06.59 last night respectively.

Sunday revealed a foggy start limiting visibility to 500m only slowly beginning to lift by 08.00. At sometime overnight the wind fell light and the upper air stream began to back into the west, which will continue on Sunday but much lighter than of late.
