Weather observation - Sunderland, Tyne & Wear
OS X (Eastings) 440951 OS Y (Northings) 554026 Lat (WGS84) N54:52:46 (54.879323) Long (WGS84) W1:21:48 (-1.363282) ==============================​​​=========== =========== Didn't manage to post yesterday (Sunday) on account of a trip out into upper Teesdale (AKA Ken Copley Country!). The trip was a bit of a last minute decision after the forcast of cloudy conditions ended up as wall to wall sunshine. Not as warm as a week agao, but still glorious and better suited to walking. By way of a change, there was a bit of dampness this morning, not really enough to soak the dry ground, but enough to prove the rain gauge is still functioning. Not quite as cold as I was expecting it to be and I'm sure the 'end-of-the-world' Daily Express snow story will prove to be a little wide of the mark. I'll be surprised if the snow shovel comes out of retirement! Regards... David Allan. PS Overheard a chap at High Force Waterfall yesterday complaining about how it had changed so much from when he was a nipper. As he paid his £1.50 to visit the waterfall, he said it had become far too commercialised and it used to be free. Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that there's always been a charge and the only sign of 'commercialisation' was a gift/sweet shop and a very small one at that. Apart from that, little else has changed and £1.50 isn't bad for a well maintained path with seats for those in need of a rest. ==============================​​​=========== =========== Current data for Ryhope Grange, Sunderland 02 April 2012 16:15 Temperature (°C): Current 9.5 Trend (per hour) -0.7 Average today 9.7 Wind chill 9.5 Heat Index 9.5 Dew Point 7.6 Rel Humidity 88% Wind (mph): Current Gust 2.2 N Average Speed 1.9 E Rainfall (mm): Current rate 0.0 Last hour 0.0 Total today 1.5 Total yesterday 0.0 Total this month 1.5 Total this year 43 Pressure (mb): Current 1007.7 Trend (per hour) -0.4 |
