Past Week
Sunday November, 24 to Saturday November, 30

Another week of contrasts which ended with our lowest temperature of the Autumn -6.6ºC on Saturday November, 30.
That day was also a sub zero day with the temperature rising only to -0.6ºC resulting in a cold average temperature for the whole day of -4.4ºC. Compare that to the beginning of the week when on Tuesday November 26, the temperature climbed to nearly double figures: 9.5ºC and the average daily temperature was 8.6ºC. Tuesday, 26 was also our wettest day of November with nearly 15mm of rainfall in what was a dry month 96mm, around half the rainfall of the 184mm that we recorded during November 2018.

Maximum Temperature: 9.5ºC Tuesday November, 26
Lowest Temperature: -6.6ºC Saturday November, 30 
Maximum Daily Rainfall:  14.99mm Tuesday November, 26
Weekly Rainfall Total: 24.9mm
Maximum Wind Gust: 18.0mph Tuesday November, 26

The Week Ahead
Forecast: By mid-week we will have lost the cold air that dominated last weekend and with the jet-stream strengthening from the west it will result in low pressure systems from the Atlantic heading our way, meaning a return to wet and at times windy conditions. Rain on Thursday is also expected to see the strongest of the wind with gusts at low level around 40mph. Temperatures are likely to reach double figures by the end of the week around 12ºC before falling close to freezing again as we approach next week. 

Earliest Sunrise: 08:27 
Earliest Sunset: 15:40

Did You know: With wind returning in this week’s forecast our highest recorded wind speed in the month of December was 51.8mph on December 5, 2015 during Storm Desmond, on a day that also resulted in 64mm of rainfall in Stirling.  (from Stirling Weather records since 2009)

Enjoyable 10K this morning in Glasgow for the annual MoRun.  

A time of 43 minutes 40 seconds in tricky underfoot conditions but more importantly a good fundraising day for charity.
