The first air frost of the autumn/winter finally happened today with a
sharp (for here) -1.6C minimum (grass minimum = -3.5C).

Had to scrape the ice off the car windscreen for the first time in a
very long time. A chore I'd rather not repeat much this winter.

Still, compensation was a sunny day until mid-afternoon and a maximum of
8.8C.

Sunshine levels slowly recovering this month though this November may
still end up the dullest I have ever recorded. Monthly sunshine total
now at 40.3 hours.

(19:25), 6.9C, RH 89%, DP 5.3C, 1022 hPa (S), Wind 4 mph S.

Just missed an air frost, minimum 0.8C, the coldest night this autumn by a full 4C. It may well still end up my mildest ever November, if not the 2nd warmest place looks fairly certain. (25 years of records)

It's certainly been dull, just about everywhere http://www.met.reading.ac.uk/~brugge/sums.jpg
