The last three days have seen the maximum slowly fall away and far from a summer temperature. The peak of 18.1C was the lowest this month and was logged early in the afternoon before the light drizzle began that got heavier just before 15.00. The peak was a significant 4.7C below my 40-year average with the minimal precipitation amounting to 0.2mm. The minimum of 10.0C at 05.18 early Thursday was also the lowest this month and 1.9C below average.
Thursday began with welcome sunshine that had lifted the thermometer to 13.8C at 08.00. The wind has veered into the west, a cooler direction, and will strengthen as the day progresses.
There are currently two low pressures systems to the north of Scotland that will produce unsettled, wet and windy weather tomorrow.
