Uniformly grey and overcast here, which was not what was forecast yesterday, but the swallows are flying high which is a portent of good weather, supposedly. and it is mild morning at about 17c.. I have just checked the met office site and decided not to go to the beach in Dorset for a nice sunny warm day as they have just changed the forecast to cloud and 18c. It's going to be warmer and sunnier where I live (nr Yeovilton) so I guess that saves some petrol anyway. It looks like that front is advancing down a bit faster than originally thought as rain is forecast mid to late evening.

[Backtrack]

Cloudy... not a surprise really. But that's really annoyed me.

[DeepSnow]

Cloudy day so far here, though it does look like it might be thinning in places and the sun is trying to get through!

Temp 19.1C

Humidity 71%

Wind light Westerly.

[Bottesford]

I think the cloud across the middle of UK is burning off a bit so you may see some Cheshire sunshine yet.

It keeps coming & going here too but I'd say it's now more sunny than not sunny. Still chilly in the brisk wind though, currently 19.6c.

[BornFromTheVoid]

Sunny spells, warm and humid in Cork city. Currently 21.4C with 82% RH, or a humidex of 27C. Low overnight of 16.0C, so a new record high minima this summer.

Cloud seems reluctant to shift here, even with the sun almost at full strength.

[Jon Somerset]

Sun did get through for a few minutes but cloud has reasserted itself here. Very breezy - and we even had a short shower mid-morning which was not forecasted anywhere! I guess I have to accept yesterday as the good day and hope that the high pressure reasserts itself properly for next weekend.

[Andy Bown]

After a sunny start low Stratocumulus spread in from the West mid morning and it's been cloudy/bright since. Surprisingly

stuffy feeling day, 19.3c with 68% humidity.

[Bottesford]

A lovely mostly sunny day here and actually feeling warm & summerlike - we have the windows and doors open again at long last!

21.6c our max so about average - and how nice it is to be back up to average again.

[BornFromTheVoid]

Not much change in the weather here, now up to 22.1C, RH 80%.
