• The east and southeast are more likely to be drier on Tuesday, with stronger winds and showers in the north and northwest.
• From then, there looks to be a change to more settled conditions with the best of any sunshine in the southeast.
• A northwest/southeast temperature split may also develop, whereby cooler polar air will characterise the north, with the south experiencing warmer air from the continent.
• By the end of this period, fine, dry weather is likely to prevail for many.
• Light winds are likely with plenty of sunshine, and temperatures generally warm or locally very warm.

Met Office : South East England : 2022-08-18T01:04:59

Daylight : Buckinghamshire

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 : Buckinghamshire

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!
