Default [OBS] Romsey - Sunday 31st August 2008

Other than a slither of blue to the extreme southeast,
the sky is cloaked in rather bland medium level cloud,
lacking the dark bases and tall turrets seen pre-0900Z.
Outbreaks of mainly slight rain this morning with a short
moderate burst around 0630Z, yielding just 0.6mm.
Fog patches to our northwest lifted into Stratus by
0830Z but the mist remains. Wind all over the shop
this morning but now settling to a northwesterly point.
Muggy. Current conditions:

Fascinating but not spectacular weather for a while this
afternoon. Near day darkness around 1420Z brought
the onset of... moderate drizzle! The vis plummeted to
just above fog limits. Out of a wodge of low Stratus,
these very fine water droplets were definitely blowing
from the northwest, immediately followed by a 2-minute
downpour of very large raindrops from the south, due
to embedded convection I would guess (probably the
real reason for the near day darkness).
