"Summary

A flabby area of low pressure over southern europe will drift
slowly northwards, bringing changeable conditions to the United
Kingdom during the next few days, with eastern coasts becoming
very murky during Saturday and Sunday."


We all know what flabby means. Over weight as I understand.
This particular low pressure needs to go to Slimming World to shape
up and give us some proper weather.

I did notice on the Spotlight SW forecast yesterday that 'Low
pressure was going to build across the country'.

At least we've lost the strong ESE of 2 or 3 days back. Slack low
pressure when you're sticking out into the cold Atlantic tends to
mean we miss the rain. (Famous last words) Hazy sunshine currently &
feeling quite warm in near still conditions & 15C.

Every day from 10th-16th has seen a maximum between 15C & 17C,
(probably ideal for Norman!) today looks like being no exception.
Minimums not low here, last 5 nights 11.4, 11.0, 11.2, 11.6, 8.0C.


Max so far today is 12.4° - much more pleasant :-). Still plenty of
radiant heat despite complete cloud cover. A good (bad) sunburn day for
the unwary.
