What's your weather - 2016

Yesterday afternoon the light rain (they promised heavy rain ) stopped and the sun came out. During the rain the temperature dropped but soon picked up again.

Now, at 4.20 a.m. it is 50F/10C but not a hint of sunshine.

 

8 a.m. and still 50F

 

A top temperature of 59f with horizon to horizon blue skies all through the morning. Then in the afternoon a small army of fluffy white clouds trundled overhead without blocking the Sun and then by around 4pm the skies cleared again.
I had a good lesson of Physics this morning when opening the Shutter of the Observatory, so that I could track the Sun with the Scope, when the warmer air outside met the colder air in the Observatory and my Scope lens and mount immediately was soaked in "Dew". The whole lot had to be wiped down and made dry before I could use it and I was amazed just how much water there was!!
Anyway, the lesson has been learnt and I will keep it covered when opening the Shutter tomorrow morning. The forecast is for fine and dry weather here in Cheshire for at least up to WednesdaySo I'll be tracking the Sun during the day and Star gazing in the, hopefully, clear night skies.
Right now the temperature is 47f and the pressure reading is 1024mbs.

 

Yesterday turned out to be fairly warm and sunny with a high of 70F, but it dropped to 38.9F in the night. As the sun is now shining brightly the temperature should rise quickly to a forecast 17C by 1 p.m.

 

Went to to 6C this morning, but further down the hill in Guildford they had it a bit colder some car windows were frosted over!

 

The forecast was wrong. It reached 64.5F/18C by noon.
