[Stargazer]

Cold clear start with our first air frost of the season - although we've narrowly missed an air frost several times and the university has recorded four in a row (this location is near the town centre and more sheltered, so nights here are usually milder). Slowly clouded over from late morning, with light rain from mid-afternoon onwards. Current conditions: light rain, 8.1 deg C, wind light W. Today's maximum 9.5, last night's minimum -0.5.

[Edit - like the webcams, Gibby - will be watching with interest ]
