UK Day 6-7 and week 2

• High pressure likely dominant across the south through this period with more mobile Atlantic flow across Scotland.
• Generally dry and fine for southern and eastern parts of the UK to start, with light winds and some lengthy spells of sunshine.
• Feeling warm or very warm, potentially hot in southern England and Wales.
• Cloudier in northwestern areas with fresh winds and periods of rain, mostly light, arriving on Sunday.
• Temperatures near normal here but feeling cool in the rain and cloud.
• Dry weather likely continuing for the south and southwest as we head further into July, though some showers still possible at times.
• Northern parts of the UK staying unsettled, these conditions perhaps becoming more widespread towards the end of the period and bringing cooler air further south.

UK Week 3 and 4

• This period sees a weak signal for more settled conditions to extend more widely across the whole country again, though periods of cloud and rain still likely to be most prevalent in the northwest.
• Temperatures widely above average initially, especially across the south, and potentially very warm or hot at times, most likely for England and Wales.
• Temperatures perhaps returning closer to normal later in the period, but still likely to be warm to very warm at times in the south.

Met Office : South East England : 2022-07-05T14:15:31

Daylight : Surrey

Day length is dusk to dawn. Times will vary a little if there is a hill on the horizon.

It should still be light enough to read at dawn and dusk, so there will be enough light for walking even earlier (later).

Moonlight : Surrey

Notes

• The moon's phase or fracillum (percentage of the moon illuminated) doesn't vary much with location.
• A full moon is not just bigger, its much brighter. A half moon ('50%') give less than 5% of the illumination of a full moon. You can walk with a half 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!
