Wales

Chilly with sunny spells and scattered showers.

  • A chilly start for most of Friday with a continuation of sunny spells and scattered showers, these heavy and wintry at times, especially over higher ground in the north, before easing through the evening
  • Winds remaining light
  • Maximum Temperature 8C

Tonight:

  • Any showers gradually easing through the evening to leave a mostly dry night
  • Turning chilly underneath the clearest skies with a touch of frost and some fog patches developing
  • Minimum Temperature -2C

Saturday:

  • Mist and fog soon clearing to leave a drier day compared to Friday with a mixture of sunny spells and a few, mostly light, showers
  • Generally light winds
  • Maximum Temperature 10C

Outlook for Sunday to Tuesday:

  • Cloudier on Sunday and Monday with a few showers mixed with brighter interludes
  • Brighter but breezier on Tuesday with plenty of lengthy sunny spells
  • Chilly by night with frost patches

UK Day 6-7 and week 2

  • High pressure is expected to be centred to the east of the UK for much of next week
  • Initially there should be a good deal of dry weather with sunny spells by day, but still the potential for some chilly nights at first
  • Daytime temperatures will probably start around average, but gradually increase day by day
  • As we move towards the weekend and into the following week, we are likely to see a gradual transition to less settled conditions
  • So rain or showers are expected at times, mostly focussed across the south and west at first, then more widely later
  • With winds predominantly coming from the south or southwest it will also become much milder, possibly warm in places

UK Week 3 and 4

  • Confidence is low, but changeable weather patterns are most likely at the end of March
  • This means periods of unsettled, wet and windy weather interspersed with some drier and brighter spells
  • Into early April, there may be a transition to more frequent drier and more settled spells
  • Temperatures will probably be above average overall

Brecon Beacons Visibility

Fri, 14 Mar 24km 24km 24km 24km 16km 9km 1km 1km 0km 0km 4km 8km 12km 0km 0km 0km

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

  • Max Height (solar noon) is when the sun is highest in the sky.
  • Day length is dawn to dusk as there is enough light for walking for at least 30 minutes before sunrise and after sunset, even on an overcast day.
  • At 'Light' (nautical dawn) the horizon becomes visible. At 'Dawn' (civil dawn) there is enough light to read, and drivers can switch their lights off. Finally the sun rises.
  • After sunset, there is still enough light to read until 'Dusk' (civil dusk) or lighting up time for drivers. The horizon is still visible until 'Dark' (nautical dusk).
  • Times will vary if there is a hill on the horizon.

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
  • Sunlight is ~ 1,000,000 times brighter than moonlight.
  • Of course, you need a cloudless night as well!
