TODAY'S PENNINE WEATHER

[Stanley]

Yesterday dried up late morning and we had a dry overcast afternoon. Last night the overcast was broken cloud but it stayed dry I think. This morning we still have broken cloud but it's dry and milder with a significant breeze. The glass is down on 986mb and tending to fall. The forecast is for showers all day out of a mostly bright overcast and some sunny spells this afternoon. The constant westerly winds will be moderate and gust to over 30mph early in the day. We can expect a high of 6C and a low of -2C tonight. The wind chill will be -5C at times but the overall effect is milder than of late. The outlook is for cool brighter weather for three days and then warming up into double figures by the end of the week.

We’ve just had a light shower, fine now, hardly any breeze, a bit nippy and quite cloudy.

Some very heavy showers in the Burnley area. I got soaked walking through the hospital grounds to get to my appointment in the eye clinic!

Yesterday afternoon was damp but no serious rain. We seem to have had a dry night and at the moment it's clear, breezy and cold under a clear sky. The glass is up on 1000mb and rising strongly. The forecast is for a dry clear sunny day with a yellow frost warning of ice until 10:00 due to a strong wind chill. The wind starts as moderate WNW but eases and by 14:00 is NE. We can expect a high of 3C and a low tonight of -2C with a -5C wind chill early on but easing as the day goes on. The outlook is for two more bright cold days and then we move into heavy overcast but temperatures into double figures.

It’s sunning. A beautiful morning, wall to wall sunshine, not a cloud in the sky, and not too cold either.

[Stanley]

Same here Gloria but -6C because of the wind....

Been out for a walk into Longridge, it’s really lovely out, proper spring day.

Yesterday afternoon stayed bright and dusk was a long time coming! It stayed daylight for a long time. We've had a dry overcast night with a light breeze. The glass has risen and is on 1010mb this morning. The constant ESE wind will be moderate all day gusting to almost 35mph. We can expect a high of 4C and a low tonight of -2C and a wind chill of -5C all day so wrap up warm! The outlook is for two more overcast cold days and then the temperature climbs into double figures!

[Gloria]

Light cloud, sunshine, bit of a slight breeze, bitterly cold but a lot better than rain.

[Stanley]

Not much sun here Gloria, bright and like you, very cold..... -5C at the moment and no improvement in sight.

Yesterday afternoon stayed bright and cold but with very little sun. We had light rain/snow during the night and this morning it's calm and dry under heavy overcast even though the Met Office says we are having wintry showers.... The glass is down on 995mb and the forecast is for a heavily overcast day with wintry showers all day. The wind starts ENE moderate and ends up E and light. We can expect a high of 4C and a low tonight of 2C with a wind chill that is -5C now but eases as the wind drops during the day. The outlook is for a big change tomorrow with temperatures in double figures for the rest of the week.

[Gloria]

Lightly overcast, no breeze, quite nippy and when I went out to top the birds up there was the odd bit of rain. It feels like it could go either way.

[Stanley]

Same here Gloria.... The forecast was wintry showers but all we have seen is very light rain.

We went out for a walk into Longridge to the civic hall market, it stayed fine apart from something light blowing in the wind occasionally. It was bitterly cold making my eyes and nose run
