[Andy Bown]

We've now reached a week where the weather has been almost identical every day! ...

... Cloudy, damp starts and a slow clearance to a brighter dry afternoon.

The only exceptions to this are Sunday which was sunny throughout and Monday which had light rain in the late afternoon.

And sure enough today started with slight drizzle under a misty, dull sky and the cloud has gradually lifted and broke through the morning

with some hazy sunshine recently.

It's 12.6c at the moment and looking set to be a very pleasant afternoon.

[Terminal Moraine]

A mild and cloudy night with a few spots of drizzle at times, and hill fog until 0830. Mild and cloudy so far today although it is trying to brighten as I type.
