[Andy Bown]

Only 1.5mm of rain so much less than expected and also a considerably earlier clearance than expected with it now being mostly sunny!

The temperature rose to 11.2c overnight and is now back down to 8.6c, breezy from the WSW.

[Gibby]

Certainly a better looking skyline from Radstock this morning with the cleaner air mass now replaced the dirty air of yesterday away. Not a lot of rain overnight just 0.2mm. Pleasant enough currently in 9.7C temperatures at the moment and a light Westerly drift.
