BRACKNELL (TF)
1500 SW F3 35km - 1/SC 3/AC 7/AS T068D040
RMK: After a reasonable day so far, sky now looking much gloomier: the
SC (around 4000ft base) is distant to the NE, the AC
(altocumulus/~12000ft) is running in from the SW (presumably ahead of
developments to come) and the AS I judge to be from thickening/lowering
CS - base well up around 16000ft - can just see a CONTRAIL through it.
There is genuine CI as well just visible through the disappearing gap to
the NE. 'Looks like rain' is the general picture of the sky=
