Our maximum wind speed recorded was 47mph on Tuesday 7, our highest of 2020 so far.

It will remain blustery for most of the week. Wednesday could be a drier day but rain is expected to return on Thursday. Most of the wet weather this week is expected to fall as rain but at lower levels it could turn occasionally to sleet. There are signs that from Friday and into the weekend that more settled conditions will move into the area and with that temperatures would drop to freezing and below.

Cancel It Please!! - that was the cry from over a thousand runners when we woke up to the relentless rain & wind on Saturday morning. : But how glad are we all now that they didn’t - what fun was had running through lots of mud & puddles getting battered from the rain & wind and then someone threw in some hills - well lots of hills. : Well done to all the runners, organisers & volunteers for their magnificent efforts in such horrible conditions. : Sounds weird & silly but that’s the best fun I’ve had running in many years. At the start of each month I take a look back at the previous month's weather information for Stirling. More historical weather stats can be found on the Stirling Weather website. December 2019
As well as the main weather website, Facebook and Twitter, in the Stirling Observer published each Wednesday I look back and take a look ahead to what the Stirling Weather has in store for us. Below: Stirling County Cricket Club on December 15, 2019.  So there goes another Christmas and with it another year with no festive snow. The last time we had snow in Stirling on Christmas Day was in 2010 during the cold spell that lasted from November, through December and into January 2011. Some would say that we had enough of the cold and snow during that spell to last a decade but in keeping with the season it would have been nice if we had some snow over the festive periods since. In last week's Stirling Observer newspaper (article below) I wrote more about the 2019 Christmas weather.
