Remained generally dry throughout most of the day, with some brighter skies for a time this morning. Some darker, stormier, skies in the last hour has provided a spell of moderate rain, with a brief torrential downpour (my favourite part) at the beginning. I suspect their may have been a gust front or something associated with it as it suddenly became rather windy during the heaviest part of the rain. 

 

Temperature currently around 18*C.
