Another dry day on Saturday

Saturday was dry but it was a predominantly cloudy day limiting any warmth producing a maximum of just 13.4C, which was 1.3C below the average due to the light northerly air movement.

The sky cleared overnight allowing the thermometer to drop to 4.9C at 04.50, which was 2.9C below the average.

Sunday began cloudy with radiation fog in the valleys but by 08.00 the sun had begun to break through and the fog to lift. By that time the temperature had risen to 6.0C and the barometric pressure had risen a significant 23mb since the deep depression passed our way on Saturday to read 1003.7mb at 08.00. The light air movement today will come from a warmer quarter, namely a southwesterly.
