Week’s Weather 29.11.09
Once again we missed out on the rain-band passing through the region at the beginning of the week and we only caught the tail-end of it with a shower of 2 mm measured in the rain gauges. The main feature for the remainder of the week was the gradual rise in day time temperatures from the hot northerly winds, reaching a peak on Saturday with 35ºC. Sunday’s peak was nearly as high with 33ºC. On both days a heat stress warning was issued, advising those at risk of possible Heat Exhaustion or Heatstroke.
