Weekly weather pic!

  This week's pic is another taken by Miss Mitchell on her summer holidays in the Orkneys. I think that this is the best picture we have ever featured on the site. A wonderful sunset with oranges, purples and blues reflected off the sea and a sky dominated by altocumulus clouds. The only thing missing is a lighthouse. Wonderful weather pic!

While the high pressure sits on top of us again today, there is a cold front which will pass over us and this will bring a high chance of rain in the afternoon after a dry and sunny start to the day. Winds will again be light and because they are from the north, will feel cool. Temperatures will be 6-8 degrees.

Sunday 4th November

After a cold night, we should again have a bright, clear start to the day but the presence of the weather front indicates a chance of rain around lunchtime. Winds will again be light but temperatures will be a cool 6-8 degrees.

Weekly weather pic

This week's weather pic was taken by Miss Mitchell when she was on holiday in the Orkneys this summer. This is an absolutely stunning photo of dark cumulus clouds bringing rain to the Island. Notice the lighthouse still bathed in light in the background, whilst the refracted waves in the foreground are cast in shadow. Wonderful weather pic!
