Additional weather information
Meteorologist's view
Lighter winds and higher humidities will mean the temperature and 'feels like' temperature will be very similar, and higher compared to recently.
Weather
Poor pre-dawn visibility, with low cloud and some mistiness in the valleys after Saturday's rain. Rather cloudy to begin the day, but Sunday overall an improved day compared to Saturday, if humid. Cloud should gradually lift, with eastern parts seeing the best of any breaks and perhaps limited hazy sunny intervals before dusk. Light winds.
Chance of cloud-free hill tops
20% improving to 60.
Low cloud and visibility
Poor visibility with low cloud to around 400 metres and some mistiness below this. Cloud rising to around the highest ground by lunchtime, with good visibility then expected.
Ground conditions
No recent ground conditions report available.
