I wasn't expecting the strong breeze today, it's making the current 17°C feel considerably cooler.  Only a few spits and spots around half eight, not even enough to wet the paving stones!

[knocker]

After a fine morning with just some small Cu the expected upper cloud and now Sc with some quite large Cu has duly arrived and we await the arrival of the front and the rain.

Only thing being that the front do not look to hold that much in rainfall, right now, unless it strengthens over the next few hours. It looks very broken up..

A few heavy bursts mixed in, Db.

[Dorsetbred]

Now the front appears to have some increased activity, good, it is well needed...

The rain still hasn't reached here yet but it's got quite windy now.

Looks like the heaviest of it's staying just to the west at the moment.

Exactly 10mm in the gauge this morning, raining heavily around 02.00, enough to have done some good to gardens and fields.  Sunny now and feeling quite warm at 15°C already.
