Morning All, a fine sunny (and so far) clear skies start to the day, after an overnight low of 8.1°C at: 06:07, currently 18.1°C  with RH72 % and a very lgiht breeze at 2mph in from the NE..

Surprisingly low numbers of folks on the beaches this morning

A little bussier but still easy to get a decent square patch on the main beach as the sun dips in and out of the cloud...

...wind has picked up now 10mph from the N, and local temp is 20.6°C..

Another Sunny day here. There's been cloud to the east, north, and west all week but not much here in the bay. Best weather of the summer so far. Torquay to Cowes power boat racing will start in sunshine later but possibly end in cloudy conditions as once again its cloudy east of Portland.

Not great today for what was supposed to be the sunnier day of the weekend. The extent of cloud from the North Sea is really quite something!

Still crackin on with the sunny conditions although as the satellite shows, a little further east and the cloud seems to dominate..

Currently 19.9°C , with a 10mph N breeze, but pleasant in the warm sunshine..

Lots of cloud in inland Devon but it melts away towards the coast, at least here in the bay it does. Been the same story all week. We have been very fortunate in Torquay. First picture looking NW (inland), and second picture turning the camera SW. Its been sunny here all day.

Cracking morning, clear sky, calm

...don't think we will see many chinks in that today, not here anyway..
I think the Fish & chips guy has gone home in disgust, and the coucil wardens will have been given the day off as there's no illegally parked cars within a mile of the beach..looking at this

Amazing August Bank Holiday 15.5°C, people covered in theirs towels avoiding the chilling breeze...I bet it wont look like this next weekend (before the rain arrives!) This is less in numbers than you see any Christmas & Boxing Day...

Interesting fax chart for later this week, 9 lows all beaten away (including ex TS Julian), this HP certainly has made it's (even cloudy) mark on the weather for August 2021..

Its thinning a bit in Dorset and to the west it might clear up. I was having such a good time last week that I forgot we had a cloudy morning on Thursday which had cleared by 1-2pm.

Well that does pretty c*@p down there for an August Bank Holiday, may a Hurricane would get more visitors (excuse me, I know they couse death)..anyway looking really sparse down on the beach..

image.thumb.png.c414c2acb87b2f0c724973508304518c.png

BUT, the chippy is back..

Seemigly we appeared to sstruggle up to 18.8°C at: 14:45, but I think that's quite pleasant, you can do the gardening (slowly at the mo) and not break out in to a sweat.. NICE...

I only "Do" the beach in Autumn and winter, once it's free of the visitors (being polite)......

The confluence of the rivers at Malpas, Truro, this morning

confluence.thumb.jpg.15d82974014240ce72ef32912d67abf6.jpg

Looks nice, very different to her with the cloud cover, BUT the maximum temperature picked up a tad and mad it ALL THE WAY to ........16.1°C 

Got to think how often in AUGUST do we see these sorts of temperatures as PEAKS?

Ah well, the wonders of weather ...

Hoping we get some rain soon, to save my water bill going through the roof...

The current sea temperature is 18.3 °C, I've seen it warmer, although that's above the 2000 average apparently!
