With precipitation that started just before 07.00 and finished just after 22.00, Tuesday was more like Autumn. The rate of rainfall was light but was almost continuous, easing in the evening but still outbreaks of light rain until late evening that amounted to just 2.8mm. The conditions meant a cool day with the temperature struggling to reach a maximum of 18.1C being 4.5C below average and the coolest for a fortnight. At least the past night was mild thanks to the cloud with a low of 12.5C, which was 0.7C above the average.
Wednesday dawned with fog that limited visibility to 300m initially. By 07.15 there was a little brightness but no sunshine and by 08.00 the low cloud had lifted considerably. The barometric pressure has started to rise as the depression eases away so there is hope for a couple of better days ahead.
