Still changeable but improvement on the way

Wednesday was a pleasant, sunny day that saw the thermometer rise above the average (+0.9C) with a maximum of 18.2C at 11.40. Greater cloud cover in the afternoon stopped any further rise in temperatures. The minimum of 9.7C (+2.7C) occurred in the early hours of Thursday ay 01.48 before increasing cloud meant that the thermometer began to rise again to reach 11.8C at 08.00.

Thursday began dry but light drizzle was observed at 07.45 followed by a light shower close to 08.00 as a weather front traversed the area. Sadly, another weather front is following later in the morning, bit will not bring torrential rain.

The depression that has brought the unsettled weather this week is now over the NorthSea and beginning to lose its influence. At the same time as a high pressure in the eastern Atlantic is easing closer so drier, sunny days are ahead for the weekend. As a consequence of the depression relocating the wind has veered into the northwest and probably north later.
