A very cold day in London. Only made it to 4c, and very foggy again. Was nice crisp and sunny during the afternoon.

Such a contrast to those early August temps when people were moaning about warm nights of 20-21c and hot days of early to mid 30s.

I miss the summer, but appreciate the change of season. It was cold on my walk today.

Dense freezing fog soon cleared to give a misty, sunny and cold day. Light showers this evening. Maximum 5.2, minimum -0.6. Wind light SW.
