South East England

Drier, cooler and brighter into Thursday.

  • Largely cloudy with patchy outbreaks of rain spreading south this evening and a strengthening breeze
  • Rain largely easing by the end of the night though
  • Minimum Temperature 8C

Thursday:

  • Any remaining rain soon clearing to leave a largely dry and bright day with good sunny spells and some very isolated afternoon showers
  • Feeling colder despite generally lighter winds
  • Maximum Temperature 13C

Outlook for Friday to Sunday:

  • Likely dry with sunny spells to end the week and into the weekend
  • Mainly light winds
  • Rather cold however, with overnight frosts possible

UK Day 6-7 and week 2

  • Much of this period will be dominated by high pressure to the east of the UK, and areas of low pressure over the Atlantic
  • Bands of cloud and rain will attempt to push eastwards at times, but possibly weakening as they do so
  • As such, there may be some reasonable dry weather during the early part of next week, with any significant rain most likely western areas
  • However, from midweek onwards it is possible low pressure may become increasingly influential, with an increased chance of rain, showers and perhaps strong winds, especially in the west or northwest
  • With winds often from a southerly direction, temperatures will likely trend above average, with some warm conditions possible at times
  • Towards the end of the period high pressure may become more influential

UK Week 3 and 4

  • Potentially some wet and windy weather at first, especially in the northwest, but a trend towards more settled conditions is most favoured for late October as high pressure becomes increasingly dominant
  • This would bring the potential for frost and fog at night, and possibly large variations between daytime and overnight temperatures
  • Into early November, high pressure may become more centred to the northwest of the UK, resulting in a gradual trend towards more unsettled conditions

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!

Kent weather (Accuweather)

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