Wed 26th Feb 9:15 a.m. – A sunny morning

Fine and sunny across the Peak District this morning after a touch of frost on the grass earlier on.  The minimum temperature in Tideswell this morning was +1.7 deg.

Cloud will build up during the day so the sunshine will become a bit more limited. There may be a few showers in the middle part of the day, especially in the northern half of the Park. A bit cooler than recent days with quite a sharp breeze.

 

Tonight we’ll see yet another spell of rain as the unsettled spell goes on and on. We’re now in a gradual cooling down phase and over the next few days we’ll see some sleet as well as rain, with the possibility of a temporary snow cover from time to time above about 350-400 metres. The rather cold and very unsettled weather looks set to continue right through next week so our recent hint of spring is something of a false start.
