TODAY'S PENNINE WEATHER

[PanBiker]

Apparently the Met Office are saying that there wont be any warm weather until mid August.

Yesterday stuck to the script and we had a dry afternoon with full sun and a clear sky by 20:00 but too late to warm anything up. This morning it is calm, dry and we have light broken overcast. The glass is up on 1015mb and the forecast is for bright overcast until 13:00 when heavy rain will come in and stay with us for the rest of the day. We will have light southerly winds all day but these won't help with the temperature, we will have a high of 14C and a low of 12C tonight with minimal wind chill. The six day outlook is for similar temperatures. The jet stream is deep into Europe and dragging in air from North Africa giving the astonishing highs we are seeing reported. On the whole I think we are better off with the low temperature we have than +45C!

[Stanley]

Yesterday was as forecast and the afternoon was dull and overcast but dry. At 20:00 it was calm cool and dry. This morning first thing we had a light breeze and rain. Since then it has stopped raining and now we have dry overcast. The glass has fallen to 1010mb. The forecast is for eventual sunny spells but with the chance of a shower almost any time. The mainly NW wind is light to moderate and gives us a high of 18C and a low of 9C with as much as -4C wind chill this afternoon. The outlook is for similar unseasonal weather, cool and showery.

[Stanley]

Yesterday eventually gave us sun. At 20:00 we had full sun. First thing this morning it was calm and dry with broken overcast. It is still the same and the glass is up on 1013mb. The forecast is for a day of sunny intervals but dry until later this evening when there is a chance of a shower. The mainly WNW wind is light to moderate and gives us a high of 17C, a low of 11C tonight and a possible wind chill this afternoon of -3C. The outlook is for similar mixed weather for the next six days.

Lovely sunny day yesterday, and looks like being the same today, there is warmth in the air.

[Stanley]

Yesterday was better than forecast and we had an afternoon of sunshine. At 20:00 it was still sunny. First thing this morning it was calm, dry and overcast, it hasn't changed since. The glass is down on 1010mb. The forecast is for rain to come in around 10:00. The westerly winds will be light to moderate giving us a high of 16C and a low of 12C with up to -3C wind chill this afternoon. The outlook is for a wet windy day tomorrow and then similar weather to today for the rest of the week. Summer hasn't returned yet but this is far preferable to the savage heat they are experiencing in Southern Europe.
Later at 06:00. We have light rain which wasn't on the hymn sheet!

[Gloria]

It’s missling here, we’ve had a couple of heavy showers during the night.

[Stanley]

Yesterday was very uninteresting weather with frequent light showers! At 20:00 it was overcast and dull. First thing this morning it was dry but with evidence of a shower in the night. Now it's raining heavily. The glass is down on 1005mb. The forecast is for heavy rain all day. The constant SSW wind gives us a high of 15C and a low of 14C tonight with perhaps a -2C wind chill this afternoon. The outlook is for similar weather.... Deep Joy!

[Gloria]

It’s raining here as well, and looks set in for the day.

[Stanley]

Yesterday was wall to wall rain, the only thing that varied was the intensity. It was raining at 20:00 and we still had heavy rain first thing this morning. The glass is down on 993mb. The forecast is for rain all day, there's a yellow warning until midnight tonight. The constant ENE wind is light to moderate and gives us a high of 15C and a low of 11C with a wind chill of -2C this afternoon. The six day outlook is for similar weather but slightly warmer and drier.....

Humidity today is 62% and Visibility 33km.

Looks like B’lick is in for a very wet day.

[Stanley]

You're right Cathy, it's pouring down at the moment..... Still, better than the heat storm they are having in Southern Europe.

[Gloria]

Rain yesterday, rain last night, and still raining today. Royal Lancashire Show showjumping cancelled today, but the rest of the show is still going ahead.

[PanBiker]

Lots of traffic and delays on the A59 around Broughton and Heslacker Lane to Carleton with the Food Festival event. Problems apparently with parking at the event. We saw one report on Facebook last night where a family had queued 2.5 hours with little progress, they had paid £300 for their tickets and gave it up as a bad job, jacked it in a went home. We did all our goings and comings to Bradley and Silsden over the weekend via the Moss or over the tops through Lothersdale.

[Stanley]

Yesterday was wet. It was still raining at 20:00. This morning the flags were wet but it had stopped raining during the night. The glass is up on 1002mb. The forecast promises us a sunny start but then clouding over and perhaps the chance of an isolated shower later. The northerly wind is light to moderate giving a high of 16C and a low of 10C with a -2C chill this afternoon. The outlook is for similar broken weather but gradually getting warmer and sunnier later in the week.

Yesterday was a much better day and at 20:00 we had late low sun. First thing this morning it was calm and dry but overcast. The overcast is ragged and broken now and we have had a very light shower if rain. The glass is up on 1005mb. The forecast is for sunny intervals all day with a chance of showers this afternoon. The constant WNW wind is light to moderate and gives us a high of 16C, a low of 11C tonight and as much as -3C wind chill this afternoon. The six day outlook is for warmer weather but always the chance of a light shower.

[Gloria]

Yesterday was a lovely bright day, and warm in the sun. Today is starting out much the same.

[Stanley]

Looking much the same here Stanley.

Warm and very mild, almost close and it keeps looking as though it could have a shower of rain before evening but none so far.
