ASCENSION:

There was very little rain at the airhead last week, although a few showers affected a clear viewing of the solar eclipse during Wednesday morning, especially at Travellers Hill.

ST. HELENA:

Monday was a lovely day with plenty of sunshine, although it turns horrible during Tuesday as an old weather front cross the island, bringing low cloud and some showers. It turned rather windy during Wednesday and Thursday, and it was hazy too. The weather turned nice on Friday, and it was a mixture of a few light showers and sunny spells during the weekend.

UK:

Rather unsettled throughout last week. There was low pressure sat over the UK all week, bringing cloudy skies and rain at times. Never the less all that cloud and wind did keep temperatures on the normal or slightly mild side, so it’s not all bad!
