Saturday saw the last of the very mild days as the thermometer again rose above average (+6.6C) at 13.18. We also enjoyed more sunshine than on the two previous days with 5.2 hours.
All was to change overnight with storm Callum easing away to the north east of the UK as Post Tropical Storm Leslie approached towards Spain and Portugal. The wind, having been from the south for most of five days, swung into the north west just before 3am. At the same time a wide and meandering weather front arrived overnight bringing much rain. The rainfall for the past twenty-four hours amounted to 12.7mm, the wettest day since 26th August. However, this modest total is minute compared to the 200mm+ that has fallen over parts of Wales.
Sunday arrived with the rain, heavy at times, from low, thick cloud although the wind has moderated considerably from previous days.
