Default West Cornwall - Friday & Saturday

On Friday the residual frontal cloud quickly cleared to give prolonged sunshine, with the NNE wind picking up to a F4 late morning.

Early afternoon the wind quickly dropped, and I had a swim around 14:00 in light winds and a temperature around 19C, it was perfect. However, by this time the wind had backed easterly along the south coast east of the Lizard and the convergence created a typical line of cloud. This streamed off the LIzard in the Marazion-Praa Sands region and across Mounts Bay, fortunately far enough south to not affect Penzance until around 15:00 when the convergence line edged north.

The temperature reached 19.5C just before the cloud edged over, after a minimum of 14.2C, and a maximum of 20.4C on Thursday.

A chilly night last night, minimum of 9.2C. So far (now 15:15) unbroken sunshine today. Maximum 20.6C. From the satellite imagery we only just missed a fog bank passing by the Lizard. Certainly the higher humidity & very light winds made it feel very warm.

30 day running sunshine total up on the moors at Bosullow is still 200 hours, it's been a very sunny year here

Default West Cornwall - Friday & Saturday

Pretty much unbroken sunshine here for today and yesterday. And with
barely a breath of wind, warm too with maximums of 22.9C & 22.7C.

Monthly sunshine total now at 90 hours, which is slightly above the average.

Given the forecast, this could end up a sunny and warm September. Though
it'll have to go some to beat September 2014 for warmth (mean = 16.7C)
or September 2015 for sunshine (225 hours).

2014 was 16.3C here. To beat that I have to go back to 2006, and exceptional 17.2C

September 2015 saw 164.3 hours up at Bosullow, I think that may well be beaten, 95 hours so far.

The August figures online are incorrect, due to upload issues. Bosullow actually saw 205.5 hours in August.
