BRACKNELL (TF)
1000 WSW F4 20km - 4/CU 5/SC //CI T101D092
RMK: Just confirming dramatic change noted above - within 10 minutes of
that ob (i.e. by 0910Z), virtually all low cloud dispersed, leaving very
thin Ac fragments and no more than 5 oktas cirrus (CI .. mix of Ci unc &
spi); cloud re-built to current cumulus fractus/humilis, with very thin
Sc around 6000ft and cirrus above. Vis shot up to at least 20K .. could
be more, as rain ceased by 0915Z: however note that T/D unchanged! The
surface cold front appears to be way back across the Midlands, so
suspect some sort of upper feature clearing overhead.=
