Hi, All,
Another bracing NE Pennine outpost report
09Z-09Z 26th January 2008

Lead Mill 218m asl,
Max 8.9C min 6.4C

Met O site 253m asl,
Max 8.0C min 6.2C grass 5.4C rain 1.1mm sun 00Z-00Z 5.5hr

Things calming down a bit today after yesterday’s excitement, still F7
and horizontal drizzle, but coal fire not disappearing like a
cigarette on a motorbike any more!

Mean wind speed yesterday 00Z-00Z was 37.6KT, max gust 59KT and
highest 10min 44KT. Just 25 of the 144 10min periods had MWS less than
F8 the lowest being 30KT.
That was some Pennine lee wave!

A couple of days’ respite now before the next weather event here,
possibly more snow mid week?
