THURSDAY was another pleasant day, with generous amounts of sunshine, though the top temperature was only 14.8. This is a little above normal, but with a powerful sun & little cloud, perhaps expectations can be for an even higher figure. Remember the air in the shadows is still quite cool!
STORNOWAY was wettest with 3mm, MORPETH was sunniest with 12.9hrs
BOURNEMOUTH(airport) was warmest at 22.1
TODAY, good things continue, with bright skies & some sunshine, though 12 or so is your limit.
Settled weather is set to continue for several more days yet, with little or no rain an odds-on certainty! (NOTE--The North Sea surface temperature is only 7 or 8 at this time of year.
Winds from the east are likely to bring sea fog & low temperatures onto the East Coast & up the Firth of Tay on occasions, so may be best heading west (if you're " foot-loose & fancy-free") on those days ahead when this happens.
