Sunday gave us a very sunny morning with 5.28 hours in total, which became intermittent in the afternoon. However, with light breezes, maximum gust of 12mph, the thermometer rose to a high of 15.4C, still above average for April. Overnight the temperature fell steadily until a minimum of 2.9C was reached at 06.30.
At dawn there was quite thick valley fog with visibility down to 300m. However as the sun got to work it slowly began to lift but the leading edge of the much heralded cold front could be seen advancing from the north west and by 07.30 it had totally obliterated the glorious early morning sunshine.
