Default [OBS] Romsey - Tuesday 16th June 2009

Sea breeze kicked in early and briskly at 1320Z today,
as a steady force 4 southerly brushed aside the earlier light
northerly regime, as well as shooing away the convective
clouds. No Cu or Sc exists in the southern half of the
sky, although there is plenty of thin Ci.

Off topic but may be of astronomical interest, I spotted
a bright green meteor 'flare' complete with trail, low to
the southwest, well before nightfall yesterday evening
at 2050Z while driving along the M27 just west of
Rownhams Services (northwest of Southampton).
It would have been startlingly bright if seen after dark.
