Virtually no mist to clear this morning, and we've lost yesterdays stiff, cool SE wind.

Currently (09:00) 16C at Penzance, 16.7C at St Ives where there's a gentle offshore breeze.

A distinct band of high cloud touching west Cornwall on the satellite pics, but it all looks very thin still off Land's End and the Scilly cams (a good advance warning) still show sunshine, so we should be OK for a good while.


Glorious conditions for a bit of bodyboarding this morning, F1-2 along shore where I was, sunny, patchy thin high cloud, clean 3' wave, sea temperaure 16-17C, air temperature around 19C.

By noon temperature 20C or so across much of west Cornwall, E.g 21C at Camborne, 20C at St Ives, 19C in Penzance - where the breeze was onshore. It made a big difference not having a misty start.

Thicker medium/high level cloud reached Penzance 13:00. However, despite the bright echoes, no rain has reached the ground yet. Land's End has also recorded no rain, despite some red echoes around midday http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/uk/radar/index.html .
