Early morning fog cleared by 0830 g.m.t to leave a dry morning with sunny intervals or longer spells of hazy sunshine, the latter due to a persistent area of Cs in the southern half of the sky whilst the northern half was almost completely clear. The Cs moved away by about midday and there were sunny intervals but Cu developed quite quickly to bring one or two short light showers around 1300 g.m.t. The rest of the afternoon was dry with short sunny intervals but more showers arrived by 1730 g.m.t.
