[J10]

Mostly Cloudy to start with a little bit of brightness, maybe even a hint of sun, but as soon as the initial rain pushed in early morning, that was it for any brightness. The rest of the day was a balance between cloud, patchy rain, drizzle and hill fog, very much a day to forget, and only 5mm of rain so nothing really to show for it. Max Temp 16c after a minimum of 14c.
