The changing daylight hours thread
ChillyJuju replied to Boydie's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
Wynn D Woo It makes sense really because the first day of Spring is marked by the vernal equinox (Spring Equinox) which this year is March 20th, 2024 and the clocks go forward 11 days after. Thus for us in Europe: Spring is deemed to start at the Vernal Equinox (near 20 March) Summer at the Summer Solstice (near 21 June) Autumn at the Autumn Equinox (near 23 September) Winter at the Winter Solstice (near 22 December). https://www.rmg.co.uk/stories/topics/when-does-spring-start In 2024 the clocks go forward on 31 March at 1am. https://www.rmg.co.uk/stories/topics/when-do-clocks-go-forward -

Today's Low Temp -2.2°C at 5:50 Dipped quite low just before the Sun came up. Been a lovely sunny day here so far, a tiny shower at approx 10:00am then back to sunshine. Temperature 6.3°C Humidity 96% Dewpoint 5.7°C Wind Chill 6.3°C Wind NNE Wind Speed 1.0mph Barometer 995.2 hPa & Steady Rain Rate 0.0 mm/hr Today's Rain 0.2 mm alexisj9 Looks like maybe we're missing most of the showery conditions here with the Barometer reading Steady pressure. Guessing you are getting all of the showers down near the southern coast.

Sprites Guilty m'lord It is actually the broken signal given out by the local Radar and the effect you speak of is caused by 'radar clutter'. permanent echoes or reflections from hills and buildings (known as clutter**) <------ Sourced direct from Rainfall radar WWW.METOFFICE.GOV.UK Weather radars send out electromagnetic pulses to measure the location and intensity of precipitation - including rain, hail and snow - in... It was @Jo Farrow who kindly explained the details but I've been unable to find the information that she posted. Sorry

snowblind Glad someone else has noticed exactly this. The stats indicating the swap of the overnight temperatures in January & April is very interesting. I can only go on my experience of 'feels like' but have noticed that it's warmer more often in January. April has been colder with change of duvet not happening until at least the end of the month more often than not
