RMK: As the Sc layer has thinned in the last hour, so the amount
of Cu fra has increased. Thick patches of Ci visible through the gaps,
though amount is very much a guesstimate. Sharp shower 2035-45
yesterday, a notably long-lived discrete feature on the radar
images, dropped 2mm of rain.

1150z WSW F3-4 40km 4Cu022 4Sc025 17.7/11.5 1007.5
RMK: Cu rather flat and, to be honest, not much different from
the Sc. A trace of Ac and Ci visible far to the south and east,
otherwise just blue sky in the gaps.
