Quite a bright start to the daylight hours today with no wind at all until around 09:30 (there was some wind until 3:00am but nothing over 9 km/hr) when it suddenly shot up to a whole 7 km/hr but then kept rising steadily until it reached todays Highest Gust of 26 km/h at 13:15 (Highest Speed (10 minute average) 18 km/h (F3) at 13:13) but then dropped away steadily to be under 5 km/hr by 21:00 and has been less than that ever since.  Wind Run today was just 68.1 km and surprise surprise the Dominant Direction was 279° (West) despite spending time at most points of the compass including in no particular order, North, South, South West and no direction at all for about 6 hours.  Lowest Temperature today was 4.9 °C at 22:39 this evening (last night's low was just over 10.0c), currently up to 5.6c but down from todays High Temperature of 16.4 °C at 11:03.  Outdoor Humidity range was between the almost obligatory 99% at 06:46 and only managed to struggle down to a Low of 73% at 11:07 briefly before shooting up to 99% again for most of the rest of the day apart from one brief deviation to 91% at 18:00.  The Barometer continued its downward trend of yesterday starting at todays High (SL) of 1015.8 hPa at 00:41 and dropping to the days Low Pressure (SL) of 1010.9 hPa at 14:38 before staging a recovery to be currently at 1014.6 hPa.
