The cold air trapped under the high pressure gave us another cold day on Sunday. The thermometer rose to a peak of 7.9C at 13.28, following a cold night, before more cloud arrived drifting down on two weather fronts, the low was 2.8C below my long-term average. The UV light peak was 3.1, just into the ‘Moderate’ category again.
The past night was much less cold thanks to the cloud brought on the two weather fronts so a minimum of 4.0C at 06.50 early Monday was in fact the first night with an above average minimum, with no frost, air or ground, being 1.C above my long-term average.
Monday dawned dull with total cloud cover from the residual cloud thanks to the two weather fronts that arrived on Sunday. The cloud should slowly ease later in the afternoon with some possible brightness. The wind was coming from the northeast to start the day but is forecast to veer a few degrees later today and then come from the east.
The humidity at 08.00 on Monday was 83.1% thanks to the air steam having travelled over the cold North Sea picking up moisture on the way. When the air stream veers into the east and then southeast on Tuesday it will be travelling over the Continent that is much drier, therefore the humidity will drop tomorrow with consequently much less cloud and the likelihood of sunshine with hopefully, a slight rise in temperature.
