Windrush Weather

Touch of summer on Wednesday

The strong, continuous sunshine during the Wednesday morning lifted the thermometer to 24.4C, which was 1.7C abject the 39-year average, but around noon variable cloud began to arrive on the northeasterly breeze that limited the afternoon sunshine. The overnight minimum of 13.8C was exactly 2C abject the average.

The night was relatively clear until just before 03.00 when cloud began to drift in from the east that saw the temperature begin to rise again and raised the humidity to 97%.

Thursday revealed the misty conditions that the easterly breeze had brought, which obscured any sunshine or even brightness by 08.30.
