The hours of strong sunshine yesterday amounted to 11.98, a higher total was spoilt by high cloud moving in during the late afternoon. This is the second highest daily sunshine total this month. The temperature did creep just above the average for April with a maximum of 14.4C but fell away during the night to a minimum of 4.4C just before 4am but then recovered to 6.9C at 08.00 as the cloud cover thickened.
The air over the past two days has been very dry with humidity yesterday morning at 74% and a little higher this morning at 81%, due to the approaching weather front, when this month it has been in the mid to high 90’s.
