Here is today's weather report for cyclists. If you are a bike rider please go to the BBC weather site, it'll give you enough to know what coat to wear.
Between 6AM and 7.30AM in the North Somerset & Bristol area it was mild. If you have southern French lineage, you will need leg warmers and a warm top, if you are from Sunderland the usual shorts and ultra thin layer will be fine. It's drizzly bordering on light rain, but nothing to worry about.
A slight north-easterly breeze becomes a light wind at 500 feet. Quite cooling if you have too many layers on, but I would imagine a pain in the rear if slogging over the levels into it.
Probably the best cycling day of the week weather-wise.
Be careful on back roads, they are full of crap, thorns, mud, gravel and minor floods where ditches and gullies are still full of water. The hills are still draining and you will find run off on the down slopes of any roads, so be careful on descents, particularly on little-used roads, like Old Bristol Hill.
Car drivers and pedestrians are normal, for this time of the morning. The usual mix of auto-pilot, considerate and gormless.
Be careful out there.
Ends.
