The waves of moisture and drizzle swept over the area continuously yesterday with no sunshine. Late evening there was more persistent rainfall and also just after 3am this morning, totalling 13.8mm. This brings the total for January to 79.7mm, which is 86% of the January average. For the first time in many years I noticed that for around half an hour, starting just before 6pm, when there was heavier rain, the humidity reached 100%. Late evening the thermometer began to edge upwards to peak just before midnight with a maximum of 10.8C, some 4C above the mean for January.
This morning has dawned with thick cloud again, not as low as yesterday, with the remains of a light rain band and a temperature of 7.0C at 08.00.
