Default Culdrose/ Penzance. Remarkable temperature difference & inversion

Culdrose 08:00 7.2C (2C above the forecast for for that time)
Penzance 08:45 -0.1C (4C below the forecast for 09:00 at that time)

I've never seen such a large temperature inversion affecting Penzance, and the models certainly didn't see it coming (the forecast still hasn't noticed). Cold air must have drifted very slowly down the NW-SE running valleys.

Minimum of 1.4C last night, 3rd air frost of 2014.
