A changeable week ahead
| 13:45 UK time, Monday, 14 May 2012
High pressure worked its magic over the weekend bringing plenty of sunshine which was a real tonic and a welcome change after all the rain.
St. Athan in the Vale of Glamorgan was the sunniest place in the UK yesterday with almost 14 hours of sunshine. While in Bute Park, Cardiff the temperature rose to a respectable 16.3 Celsius, 61 Fahrenheit.
I took advantage of the glorious sunshine and visited Mumbles on Saturday. Then went for a in the Vale of Glamorgan. The on both days
It's a shame the fine weather couldn't last for longer. Last night brought a change, with wet and windy weather spreading from the north-west. At Aberdaron on the Llyn Peninsula, a wind gust of 57mph was recorded.
The rest of this week looks very changeable to say the least with a mixture of cloud, rain, showers and sunshine as well.
Some of the showers will be heavy with a risk of hail and thunder and with winds from the Arctic tomorrow, a little snow is likely on the mountains. The nights will also be cold with ground frost, especially in the countryside.
Wednesday looks like the driest and sunniest day of the week with high pressure close by. But it won't hang around for long, so don't bank on next weekend being as nice as the last one.
At the moment, it's looking cool and breezy with a little rain or showers. However, on a brighter note, Sunday may turn out drier and sunnier - if we are lucky.
