Great visibility & attactive patches of altocumulus & dense cirrus
this afternoon. Scilly was clear from the hills just west of Penzance,
some 35 miles distant. A very nice afternoon despite the cool wind.

Interesting to see Scilly reported the highest 'MetO' Max in the SW
yesterday, virtually unheard of in May. A demonstration of the high
SST (which is sticking close to 13C despite the recent big swell) and
that warm humid pool of air which gave yesterday evenings
thunderstorms in Cornwall.

Plenty of basking sharks around now, 5 off Porthcurno yesterday.
