Hi, Rob,
Similar here. High just -0.1C at 11Z now down to -1.6C at 14Z. I think
the flow is more off the land than recently and there is less North
sea warming. The cloud seems to be thinning also, or maybe it's just
one of those things.
It's certainly bitter with keen SSE'ly, mist and windchill -7C

Just 11.2 Max here, reached 11.3C yesterday.

Good visibility & sunny spells, not yesterdays unbroken sunshine, some
rather attractive altocumulus. Much less wind today, so it feels quite
pleasant. Ground very dry after a windy week with low humidity.

I'm quite surprised, given the long period of easterlies, that the
really cold air never made it this far west. Did the shalllow nature
of the cold air make it more succeptible to warming by the sea?
