Sunniest and warmest on/near the coast yesterday. 20.6C Max in Penzance
(rather higher than I expected), 20C on St Martins, 19C on the cliffs at
Land's End.
2 or 3C colder than Penzance at Culdrose where the convergence cloud
dampened temperatures - it was quite thick at times. Once again, the reverse
of the forecast with regard both temperature (the standard 17C was forecast
as a max at 09:00) and cloud cover. Much less cloud developing over the
Land's End peninsula than the Lizard, so Bosullow on the moors exceeded 12
hours. The evening was glorious with near calm conditions.
Sunny this morning after the coldest night of the month so far, min 11.2C
which is at least 5C colder than the SST. A F3 SE breeze, which is forecast
to fade away this afternoon as it veers southerly.
====================
Warm on dartmoor too, despite the forecasts. Over 21C yesterday here in
Haytor and now at 1030 it is +17.3C and climbing steadily in the hot
sunshine. Forecast max. was 17C for today, already exceeding that.
Feels very warm too after a night of sleeping with no covers and window wide
open and now in tee-shirt and shorts just about right with a refreshing
breeze. Looking forward to my 7 mile walk this evening in balmy warmth.
Will
