Sunday May 6th - Weather and General Chat

[Jon Somerset]

Cloud has been coming and going here - about 1.00 p.m. we reached about 14C but cloud increased an temperature dropped a little. Now clouds are bubbling up and a little rain has spotted but large areas of blue in between. Slow moving and currently about 11C.

Been a day of sunshine and cloud. Felt surprisingly warm in the sunshine with the temperature around 9.2*C.

Rather cloudy last night which prevented frost.

Cloud thinned and cleared by 0900, it was then sunny to midday.

Mix of cloud and sunny intervals pm. Persistent light showers just north of here all afternoon along a convergence line, but only gave a few spots here late in the afternoon. Light to moderate S/SE/ variable breezes.

It felt rather warm in the sun, a local effect due to the converging south-east flow off the Cambrians? Anyhow my garden was 2c warmer than anywhere else in the UK...unofficial stations and all!

Min: 3.8c @ 0600

Max: 14.8c @ 1330 (1c adjustment)

Rain yesterday and today: Trace

Currently: Sunny spells, cool.

Temp: 9.8c

RH: 60%

Pressure: 1014mbar, steady.

EDIT: My reading may well be reliable as a Davis VP with FARS at Llanelli reached 14.4c today!
