A mild and sunny day here with max of 10.9C, giving a range of 17.3C
over the past 5 days. The temperature has fallen away since sunset
though and is now down to 3.7C.

Had it not been for a fall of 0.6mm on the 27th Jan, today would have
been the 15th consecutive day without measurable precipitation. The
last time snow or sleet fell was on 29th December - so probably the
longest snow free period in winter since 1990.
