of hazy/lightbulb sunshine. The lightbulb sun is actually continuing now through thick Cirrus but it's actually been raining

Sun only shone until about 7.30 cloud soon came over and rain began earlier than expected at about 11.00 a.m. It hasn't stopped since - sometimes light but sometimes quite heavy and although I haven't seen major floods there's been some big puddles about! It's felt cold too.
