Thread: Weather for August

Monday 04 August 2008 to Sunday 10 August 2008

As one low moves away towards Scandinavia the next low is gaining momentum in the Atlantic.

Monday looks like a reasonable day of sunny spells and scattered, mainly light, showers with a north-westerly breeze. Later in the day the next Atlantic low will bring wind, rain, hill and coastal fog to the southwest of England.
These conditions will spread across the rest of England, Wales, Northern Ireland and later southern Scotland during the day on Tuesday, with humid conditions in the south. The low is still with us on Wednesday, which will bring further rain or showers for many parts of the UK.
Thursday sees the low moving off the northeast coast of Scotland, bringing a windy day for all. Northerly winds will bring a cool feel to things with persistent rain in northern Scotland. Elsewhere, there will be sunny spells and blustery showers.
As the low continues to pull away a transient ridge of high pressure will bring a brief respite for Friday but developing systems in the Atlantic will probably bring more rain for the coming weekend.

Monday 11 August 2008 to Sunday 17 August 2008

A low pressure system centred in the northern North Sea with higher pressure in the south of the UK will maintain cyclonic conditions.

The resultant north-westerly winds will bring a cool feel to things and also some rain. A wet week is expected for all areas, but the wettest conditions are likely in more eastern parts of the UK.
With pressure continuing to rise in the south, a drier and brighter end to the week is expected. Sunshine amounts and temperatures are likely to be at best average for the time of year. Rainfall is expected to exceed the seasonal average.

Monday 18 August 2008 to Sunday 31 August 2008

The Azores high continues to build from the south, settling things down. Some rain is still likely, but only what might be expected for the time of year.Temperatures and sunshine amounts will also be near the seasonal average but there could be some relatively cool nights in the south.

Does everyone remember that it was like this a couple of years ago? So much rain fell in that particular August.

Nanna, are you going on holiday? Where are you going? Somewhere warm? I hope you are, it did nothing but rain on ours last week!
We had a great time though.

Hi Sally,
Only dropping in on our 'Mollie' and a few friends for the week and meeting up with others who will be going also, for Manx Grand Prix, lol
We had a lot of rain a couple of years ago, right dampener on things I can tell you, so we're hoping for better this year.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed for the weather, Nanna. I hope the sun shines for you and Mollie!
Have fun.
