A mixed bag of weather

Yesterday Velindre near Glasbury in Powys was the warmest place in Wales with a top temperature of 21 Celsius, 70 Fahrenheit making it the warmest day of the year so far in that location.

The sunniest place was Aberporth on the Ceredigion coast with nearly 11 hours of sunshine but it's a different story today!

Parts of the south and east are sunny but in the north and west its cloudy with some mist, even a few spots of light rain and drizzle. Cooler too, temperatures only 12 Celsius on Anglesey, compared to 17 in Newbridge on Wye and in Cardiff.

The cloud over Wales shows up nicely on the satellite picture at 2pm today:

It's associated with a weak cold front which is moving south. Behind it, the air is cooler. In fact there could be a touch of ground frost in places by the end of tonight with temperatures in Powys falling as low as 2 Celsius.

Tomorrow promises to be a fine day across most of Wales with sunshine but it may not be sunny everywhere.


Parts of the north and west may start grey and misty although most of this should burn back to the coast.

As for the weekend, Saturday looks the the best day - fine and warm hazy sunshine with highs of 20 Celsius in the north with a south-easterly breeze. Cooler on the coast where the wind is off the sea so nearer 15 Celsius in Tenby.

Sunday won't be so nice with more cloud, less sunshine and cooler too. A little rain in places but I can promise some dry weather as well. Temperatures 13 to 16 Celsius with a light to moderate westerly breeze.

By the way, the starts in Cardiff tomorrow at Bute Park. The weather
will be blooming marvellous but not quite so good for the last day of the show on Sunday.
