RMK: Light upslope (W-ly) wind apparent at the top of the
Downs slope, otherwise a hint of an E-ly, or this may have
simply been a change of direction during my walk. Trace of
Cu, just formed, well to the east; some of the Ci is undulatus,
presumably aligned across the upper wind which would
therefore be from about 340 deg.

1150z NNW F2 20km 1Cu037 7Ci250 22.7/12.5 1021.7
RMK: Cu hum, increased to 4 okta for a while but is now
warming out. Some dense sheaves of cirrus, COTRA also
present.

1515z NNW F2-3 25km 2Cu060 24.7/08.4 1021.0
RMK: Also 2Ci300 ... a steady decrease in amounts and
thickness of Ci in the last 3h. Surprising drop in dewpoint.
