1926z: Rain just started. Still windy.


Having a look at what happened overnight, I find some surprising (to me)
movements of the pressure, temperature and humidity at about 2030 last
night. The barometer went from 995.9hPa to 998.2hPa, the temp from 8.5C
to 5.0C and the humidity from 95% to 89%, all in a matter of a few
minutes. The rain was coming down in torrents at the time too.

These figures are taken from my AWS.

Please could some kind person explain the physics/meteorology behind
these jumps.
