The many hours of strong sunshine on Wednesday lifted the temperature to 26.0C. This was the warmest day since 7th July (27.9C) and 3.3C above the average. It was a dry day making it the longest dry period, even so only five consecutive days, since the end of June.
Thin cloud began to drift across the sky late afternoon that thickened overnight and gave us another mild night with low of 14.0C, which was 2.2C above the average.
Thursday dawned dull with total cloud cover and no sunshine thanks to low pressure systems to the south and north of the UK. The barometric pressure at 08.00 read 1013.9mb, a drop of 8mb since Wednesday. There has been total lack of breeze since midnight but when it does resume, it will be light and will have veered from the southwest into the west and later today the northwest, therefore cooler weather in the forecast.
