Default Otter Valley, Devon - Bright, mild start to the weekend

A bright start to Saturday with frequent sunny intervals (6/8) and a
freshening breeze from the SW.

(10:53), 10.6°C, RH 76%, DP 6.1°C. 1013 hPa (F), Wind 12 mph SW.

I suspect the temperature will not rise much more before the arrival of
the cold front. Rainfall now moving into north Devon & Cornwall but some
sunshine is still managing to hang on here.

Yesterday (17th)
Min = 8.4°C
Max = 12.2°C
Rain 0.0 mm
Sunshine = 2.7 hours.

The February mean temperature is climbing quickly back up, now at 4.3°C.
If the forecasts turn out to be correct, this month could end up like
December & January, i.e., above normal and that would make this winter
overall, warm, dry and quite sunny.
