0850z WSW F2 150m FG OBSC 16.1/15.4 1016.9
RMK: Hvy rain 0020-0115, no thunder or lightning observed.
Perhaps cloud should be 8St00 as I watched the base drop
through the trees and electricity pylon between 0820 and
0840.

1150z S F1-2 5km HZ 7St006 6Sc010 17.6/16.4 1016.3
RMK: Fog lifted betw 1000 and 1030 in the same way
as it had come down ... the cloud-base was very well-marked -
maybe this is a feature of the process here; it certainly wasn't
in Luton. Now there a blue patches visible through the St
suggesting some good breaks in the Sc layer.


1450z Var F1 12km -RA 3Sc045 7+Ac080 18.6/16.8 1015.5
RMK: Thick Ac layer, lowest and thickest on the western side
of the sky. Light rain started 1430-ish, just enough to wet hard
surfaces.


1750z Var F1 8km HZ 5Ac080 7Ac120 17.2/16.0 1014.5
