    Monthly Summary.

    More heavy showers.

    Last week saw areas of low pressure crossing the UK giving some rather unsettled weather conditions. There were plenty of showers with some very heavy downpours.
    The middle of the week saw some drier and quieter weather for a time before the showers became more widespread once again towards the end of the week.
    A band of heavy rain and strong winds then moved across the country late on Saturday.
    Temperatures, which peaked around the low 20's Celsius for most of the week were considerably down on the previous week's values, although it did warm up a little at the weekend with 24.6C recorded in Greater London.
    Overnight temperatures fell to below-average values for July, particularly in Highland Scotland where Tulloch Bridge recorded a low of just 1C in the early hours of Friday morning. The seasonal average overnight temperature for the area is around 9C.
    Daytime averages across the UK in mid-July range from 19C to 23C and it looks as though this week will not stray too far from these values.

    “Heavy showers.”


    Low pressure remains the dominant force this week. We begin with the low situated just to the west of us but it will drift slowly eastwards across the UK to lie over Scandinavia by the weekend.
    Generally the weather will remain unsettled with many showers, some of which will be heavy and slow moving with some hail and thunder possible.
    It is also likely that there will be some bands of more persistent rain moving across us at times.
    The downpours will be interspersed with some warm and sunny spells but it will feel cool in areas affected by showers, especially when combined with squally winds.
    Exact day-to-day details are currently difficult to pin down as the heaviest downpours are likely to be quite localised and there will be areas that on some days see few, if any showers.

    Monday 20 July 2009 to Sunday 26 July 2009

    "Drier in the south."


    Low pressure will remain close to Scandinavia this week resulting in a predominantly westerly airflow across the UK, bringing more unsettled conditions.
    There are likely to be further showers but there are also signs that pressure will begin to build in the south that will result in a drier, more settled spell of weather here.
    However, at this stage confidence for this week is still fairly low.
    There will most likely be some good sunny spells again throughout the week but a significant rise in temperature is not expected.

    Monday 27 July 2009 to Sunday 09 August 2009

    “Drier and warmer.”


    There is increasing confidence that this period will see a return to some warmer and more settled summer weather.
    We expect the Azores high to build northwards and become more dominant. This will result in above-average levels of sunshine for the time of year and a rise in temperatures.
    There is still a possibility of some further rainfall at times but it should be much drier than of late.
    Back and on a mission:cool:

    Morning all, :)

    Diva...I would send it and also twitter him a message to say you were sending a little something to him. :)

    Love the pics korky & munchkim! That buddha one reminds me of when we went into a shop in Benidorm, there was a giant Buddha & I was explaining to my kids that it's lucky to rub his belly. On the way out I looked back to see a man in the shop vigorously rubbing it's belly!:D

    Well done on the win FE, i'm sure the move will go smoothly. :)

    Lots of lucky fairy dust from me too! My postie not brought anything for me today. xx
    Big thanks to all who contribute to the forums. Be lucky everyone and be safe!

    I know it wouldn't be a surprise but you could say she'd like to send him a thankyou card or something so the plate would be a surprise perhaps? :)
