We usually associate high pressure with fine, sunny weather. However, the anticyclone currently sitting over the UK, high yesterday of 1035.4mb, was described this morning by a Meteorological Office presenter as a dirty’ high being ‘contaminated with much cloud’. We did see short glimpses of sunshine yesterday morning with 0.98 hours.
This morning the low, thick cloud is still present. With just 31.3mm of rainfall to date and with no rainfall in the forecast, October 2016 is currently the driest October in the last 33 years.
