South West England

Storm Bert to bring possible disruption this weekend.

  • Wintry showers bring the risk of icy stretches during the morning, mainly across western counties, before gradually fading during the day
  • Sunny spells for many in the afternoon
  • A cold day, though winds easing later
  • Maximum Temperature 8C

Tonight:

  • A dry but chilly evening
  • Cloud building as Storm Bert arrives overnight, with rain becoming widespread, heavy and persistent
  • Winds strengthening again with gales along coasts and over hills
  • Minimum Temperature 0C

Saturday:

  • Storm Bert bringing a widely unsettled and potentially disruptive day with heavy, persistent rain and gales, severe along coasts
  • Turning noticeably milder, resulting in a rapid melt of lying snow
  • Maximum Temperature 13C

Outlook for Sunday to Tuesday:

  • Rain clearing through Sunday with showers and brighter spells on Monday and Tuesday
  • Strongest winds easing but staying blustery
  • Mild on Sunday then temperatures returning to the seasonal average

UK Day 6-7 and week 2

  • An unsettled start, with rain or showers in places, and perhaps also some strong winds for a time
  • Temperatures back towards average for most places, but still mild in the southeast
  • High pressure is likely to build for a time, particularly across northern areas, bringing an increased risk of some fog and frost
  • However, this is likely to migrate eastwards during the second half of next week, potentially allowing some outbreaks of rain to move into some western and perhaps southern areas
  • Into December, and while signals are mixed it looks most likely that high pressure may re-assert itself close to or over the UK, with temperatures generally near average, but some overnight frost is likely, and rather cold by day where any fog persists

UK Week 3 and 4

  • The start of this period looks like being largely settled, with high pressure close to if not over the UK
  • However
  • there is also a chance of more changeable weather patterns, which would see Atlantic weather systems periodically move across the country
  • These will bring some wetter and windier interludes with a risk of some snow, especially for hills in the north
  • These conditions look more likely to dominate towards the middle of December
  • Temperatures generally close to average through the period

Visibility in km. Above 50km is 'good'. Humidity and air pollution make it worse. Theoretical maximum is 300km/200 miles in clean dry polar air.

On the South Downs, at ~ 170m/500ft, the horizon is is ~ 45km/30 miles away. On a mountain at 1,000m/3,000ft, it is ~ 160km/100 miles away. Formula: horizon in km = √ (13 x altitude in m)

Notes

  • The percentage of the moon which is illuminated doesn't vary much with location.
  • A full moon is not just bigger, it is much brighter. A quarter moon (1/2 disk visible) give less than 5% of the illumination of a full moon. You can walk with a quarter moon if its high in the sky (after dusk for a growing moon, before dawn for a shrinking moon).
  • Sky glow (light reflected by air or clouds) from nearby cities, and especially snow on the ground also effect light levels.
  • Times will vary a few minutes, as (i) these figures are for the centre of the county the walk is in, (ii) if there are hills on the horizon, and (iii) if you are on a hill
  • Of course, you need a cloudless night as well!

Dorset weather (Accuweather)

Now would be a good time for a cup of tea.
