it is indeed the lee effect, and as a consequence we also have a foehn effect. The temperatures earlier on touched about 10 -11, but have risen to 14C at the moment. (Until the rain does eventually break through of course!)

Thanks Stephen, I was looking for that on the synoptic chart, but it must have been a chart for just before the temperature rose. It was still saying 10C in your area. Meteocentre still hasn't picked up the change, although it could be very localised:

Thanks for alerting us to it. It really is interesting, in that the fohn/lee wave is embedded in that occluding front. Did you notice the clouds, before it got dark? Any lenticulars, or was it 8/8?
