Yesterday gave us 14.87 hours of strong sunshine, the highest total since 30th June 2015. The southerly breezes (high 19 mph) modified the maximum temperature to 16.7C, average for early May. Clear skies overnight produced another cool morning with a minimum of 1.3C but the strong sunshine from dawn meant that the thermometer had risen to 9.2C at 08.00 with low humidity of 73% at this time. UV levels this month are nudging into the ‘High’ category.
