BRACKNELL (TF)
0900 S F2-3 25km - 1/CU T165D110
RMK: Total cloud amount = 3 oktas made up of ... 1 Cu hum (no vigour at
all), 1 Ac floccus, 2 Ac (flat/well-broken) & 2 Cirrus s****atus -
indicating instability aloft. Overall, I would describe the sky atm as
'flat' but with potential! We are between the activity in the SE, and
the approaching (but still distant) upper trough to the west, so it's
not surprising that not much is happening.
[ OVERNIGHT DATA (18Z - 09Z):
screen min: 11.2 grass min: 09.7 precipitation: NIL
other data: State of ground now back to dry. ]=

1200 SSW F3 28km - 1/CU 4/CC T207D107
RMK: much of past 3 hr, less than 25% cover, but in past 30 mins,
development of Cu (now to mediocris category) and invasion of Ci, Cc &
fragmented Ac, together with unstable looking Sc has increased total
cloud amount to 5 oktas. Marked shear (directional) seen about an hour
ago between low and medium level clouds. Pressure falling fairly smartly
as the upper trough approaches.=
