Today
Rather cloudy but some sunny spells. Heavy showers in the east fading later.
Light northerly breeze. Maximum temperature 14 deg C (57 deg F). Seems spot
on to me.

Not according to the TV forecast last night on the BBC - the local
forecast said sunny intervals in the morning with the chance of a light
rogue shower in the afternoon; the national forecast had a "light
showers with sunny intervals" symbol, but gave the impression that the
showers today would be the exception rather than the rule. It's been
raining constantly since I woke up!
