RMK: Cu hum tending to med in one or two places.
Marked increase in amount from 1 okta at 08z. Sunken
lanes hereabouts are getting very muddy in places now ...
suggests they'll have turned into watercourses by Xmas!

1150z WNW F4 15km RE-SH VCSH 1Cb026 3Sc040
15.5/08.2 1008.4
RMK: Light shwr 1105z, the VCSH is associated with
the Cb incus somewhere between Aylesbury and Milton
Keynes. The rest of the sky is Cu hum/med with Sc, and
some Ci fibr above. General vis is still ~60km.


1450z WNW F4 20km RE+SH 3Cb020 15.3/11.0 1009.3
RMK: Couple of sharp showers since 12z. Temp
dropped to 11.8°C


1750z WNW F4 60km 1Cu018 1Cb025 14.1/10.7 1011.1
RMK: A decaying sky ... Cb calv in the distant SE
retreating, TCu around too, plus a little Cu fra, some
scraps of Sc and Ac cugen, a scrap of Ac lentic; no
Ci, though. No further shwr since 15z. Gliders have been
up most of the day what must have been quite a boisterous
ride.

09-18z: Tx 17.3 RR 0.7
