TODAY'S PENNINE WEATHER

[Big Kev]

Very fine rain falling here in Foulridge, I'm still in shorts and sandals though

[Stanley]

Yesterday was a dull afternoon, I didn't see actual rain but it was never far off it. At 20:00 it was clearing but still cloudy, much better later in the evening. First thing this morning calm, overcast and dry. The glass is a shade lower on 1011mb. The forecast is the same as yesterday, a cloudy start and broken cloud with sun and showers in the afternoon. The wind is very light and variable and I suppose is mainly southerly giving a high of 20C and a low of 14C with negligible wind chill. The five day outlook is for similar uninteresting weather. (But better than 50C I think. Perhaps we should be grateful for a maritime climate.)

Yesterday deteriorated as the afternoon went on and at 20:00 we had a light breeze and a spatter of rain. This morning first thing we had steady rain and it has eased now but it's still a gloomy morning. The glass is down on 1008mb. The forecast is for rain until late afternoon. The wind is light and variable and swings either side of north all day. It gives a high of 17C and a low of 13C with no wind chill. The outlook for the next five days is for warmer, more sunny weather and later next week we could see well over 20C.

Yesterday afternoon turned out to be one long shower from about 14:00 onwards, I know, I was out in it in my shirt sleeves! At 20:00 it was still raining. First thing this morning it was calm dry and overcast. I've just looked out and it's still dry but we have dark ragged low cloud coming over from the east. The glass is up on 1011mb. The forecast is for it to be cloudy with the odd spot of rain perhaps until tonight when it might clear. The wind is a light NW according to the forecast but I can assure you it's an easterly at the moment. The high will be 20C and the low 13C with negligible chill. Two cloudy days tomorrow and Thursday then wall to wall sun and summer from Friday on. (Honest!)

Yesterday afternoon was far sunnier than forecast. Still sunny at 20:00 and a clear night. First thing this morning we had a clear sky, early dawn light and one bright star (Venus?). I've just looked out and it's still clear but we have a heavy dew and ground mist. The glass is up on 1015mb. The forecast is for a dry sunny day. The constant west wind is very light and becomes moderate later this afternoon giving a high of 21C and a low of 14C with a -2 chill later. The five day forecast is for sun and increasing temperatures.

[Stanley]

Yesterday was a bit more cloudy than expected but at 20:00 we had full sun. First thing this morning it was calm, dry and clear. Since then the cloud has started building and we have an almost complete light broken cover. The glass is up at 1012mb. The forecast is for a dry bright overcast day with sunny intervals. The wind starts as a light westerly but by 09:00 has swung through north and is a light NE for the rest of the day giving a high of 22C a low of 12C and minimal wind chill. The five day outlook continues to be for rising pressure and warm sunny weather. I note they have stopped talking about 25C and now forecast around 23C. Sounds good!
Just been for a short walk, 100% cloud cover now and a light NW breeze.

[Big Kev]

Clear sky here in Foulridge which is nice, shame I have to work...

[Stanley]

Clearing here, that east wind has come in on time.

[Stanley]

Yesterday was a warm day and we had sun at 20:00. First thing this morning, calm and clear and no change since. The glass is still climbing and is on 1023mb. The forecast is for a sunny dry day. The constant light wind is mainly WNW and gives a high of 24C and a low of 14C with negligible wind chill. The five day outlook is for similar weather.

[Cathy]

It’s definitely Winter here in Adelaide now.
We have rain forecast for the next week and beyond, with average daytime temps of 12C.
We’ve had severe weather warnings, probably more to come.
Brrr... it’s a little bit on the chilly side, haha.

[Stanley]

It won't last long Cathy, like our summer!

[Stanley]

We have valley mist now. All the signs of a hot day!

[Stanley]

Yesterday was hot! It clouded over later in the afternoon. At 20:00 it was overcast but dry and warm. This morning the sky is clear and it's calm. The glass is up on 1026mb. The forecast is for wall to wall sun. The light NW wind gives us a high of 25C and a low of 14C with negligible chill, probably we will be wishing for more breeze! The outlook is for similar weather.

[Stanley]

Just had a short walk to the post box. The sky is perfectly clear.·...
I see that the crocheted caps hat are appearing on the pillar boxes are the work of 'The Barlik Yarn Fairies'.

[Stanley]

Later.... very hot. I have just had a very pleasant half hour in the shade and getting a nice breeze opposite the bookies.....

[Big Kev]

26 in the shade, according to the Care Bears thermometer, here in Foulridge.

That seems about right Kev.
Yesterday was hot and at 20:00 it was well over 20C in the back yard. It's calm dry and warm still this morning with a clear sky. The glass is down a shade on 1023mb. The forecast is wall to wall sun all day. The wind is mainly WNW again, starting light and becoming moderate this afternoon when, like yesterday, it will be a nice moderator of the 25C high. The low will be 14C overnight and we shall have a welcome -2C chill this afternoon. The outlook is for this weather to last for at least the next five days, perhaps getting even warmer on Tuesday.

[Stanley]

They're talking about a big change in the weather next weekend....
Today is a beautiful day. I have just been out for a sit in the shade and the breeze opposite the bookies.... Lovely sitting there.

[Tizer]

30C in the shade down here in Somerset.

[Stanley]

Even hotter promised here today.
Yesterday was a perfect summer's day, still full sun at 20:00. Just had a look outside and it is calm, clear and mild. The glass is down a shade on 1020mb. The forecast is for another day of full sun. The forecast is that the very light wind will start in the east but by 10:00 will be NW and becoming moderate. The high will be 25C and the low 14C with negligible wind chill. The outlook is for the same and getting even warmer. I think this is high summer! Don't worry, it won't last.

[Stanley]

Later, the workshop has bitten the dust, apart from having cooking that needed doing it was still 78F in there.
So I went for a walk instead. There is enough cloud at the moment to block the sun and it is still pleasantly fresh out there.

[Stanley]

Yesterday was very hot and at 20:00 it was calm, hot and still full sun. This morning it's calm and clear. The glass is down a shade on 1016mb. The forecast is for a day of full sun. The wind starts very light in the east but by 10:00 has backed through north and is WNW and slightly stronger giving a high of 26C and a low of 15C with negligible wind chill. We can look for it to get cooler by weekend.

[Stanley]

I've just been for a short walk. It's very pleasant out there, the best it will be all day! Perfectly clear......

[Stanley]

Yesterday was full sun and very warm. At 20:00 it was calm, hot and we still had full sun. First thing this morning it was calm, clear and very warm. Another hot day coming I think. The glass is up slightly on 1018mb. The forecast is for another day of full sun. The wind is a very light easterly giving us a high of 27C and a low of 15C with negligible wind chill. The outlook is for another very hot day tomorrow and then gradually cooling down over the weekend.

[Stanley]

I've had a short walk and it's clear and ready for a day of at least 27C as forecast. It's probably as good out there as it will be today. I've got the shed down to 75C.
