South East England

Generally cloudy and dry today. Rain arriving this evening.

  • Generally cloudy and dry today, although some limited brighter spells may occur, especially at first
  • Patchy light rain may develop, ahead of a band of rain arriving late afternoon or early evening across counties to the north of London
  • Maximum Temperature 10C

Tonight:

  • A band of rain, with perhaps some locally heavy bursts, will clear south
  • Clear spells will develop and it will become chilly, especially in rural locations
  • Minimum Temperature 3C

Sunday:

  • Dry with varying amounts of cloud, but also sunny or clear spells
  • Temperatures close to, or slightly below, average
  • Maximum Temperature 9C

Outlook for Monday to Wednesday:

  • Monday spells of rain, sometimes heavy, clearing Tuesday morning with perhaps some temporary hill snow
  • Mainly dry and bright conditions follow Tuesday afternoon and Wednesday
  • Windy at times
  • Becoming colder

UK Day 6-7 and week 2

  • Cold or very cold conditions are expected across most if not all parts of the UK early in this period, with wintry showers affecting in particular northern parts and exposed coastal districts, although it may well be largely sunny inland
  • Overnight frost will be widespread and occasionally strong winds will result in significant wind chill
  • However, there is an increasing chance through the first weekend and into the following week of more organised areas of rain, snow and strong winds affecting many areas, this probably also associated with milder temperatures, at least in the south
  • Later in the period, conditions remain uncertain, but it is most likely to remain mostly unsettled with further spells of rain and snow

UK Week 3 and 4

  • Signals vary in prevailing weather patterns through this period
  • In general, there looks like a trend towards drier and more settled conditions, with high pressure potentially being the more dominant influence over the UK
  • However
  • there is a chance of more changeable weather patterns at times, 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
  • Temperatures generally close to average, perhaps a little above at times, especially in the south

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!

West Sussex weather (Accuweather)

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