Wales

Turning cooler for Sunday with scattered showers.

This Evening and Tonight:

A fine evening with some late sunshine. Cloud slowly building from the east overnight, which could bring the risk of an odd light shower. Turning chilly under more prolonged clear spells, particularly for rural areas in the west. Minimum Temperature 2C.

Sunday:

A rather cloudy day, although some bright or sunny spells are likely. Scattered showers developing, these heavy in the south. Feeling cooler than Saturday in a gentle northerly breeze. Maximum Temperature 16C.

Monday to Wednesday:

An unsettled period with scattered showers, these locally heavy. Variable amounts of cloud allowing for some bright spells but also some chilly nights. Daytime temperatures slowly increasing.

UK: day 6-7 and week 2:

Most places will see dry weather with sunny spells on Thursday, with a risk of some showers or more organised rain affecting the south. Winds should be light, but slightly breezier along the south coast. Temperatures rather cool in northern areas, closer to average elsewhere. In the following days unsettled weather may continue over the south, with northern and western areas more likely to be drier. Temperatures will return to near normal in the north and west, and higher than average elsewhere. Later in the period, the settled weather may return, bringing drier conditions to western and southwestern areas whereas cloudier conditions and showers remain in the east and northeast. Temperatures above average for the southwest, but likely to be rather cool in the northeast.

UK: week 3 and 4:

Further into June, it's likely that conditions will stay relatively similar throughout this period. There is high uncertainty in the details of the forecast, however drier conditions are most likely across western areas, and rainfall more likely in the east. Temperatures likely to be above average for most.

Met Office : Wales : 2022-05-28T14:47:08

Daylight : Gower

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 : Gower

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!
