Although the weather has been poor so far I did notice that now the sun
is higher it doesn't take much to feel warm when out and about and temps
can rise above those predicted quickly. Yesterday rose to 16.9C here
after a forecast of 14C as it turned out to be predominantly sunny. With
little wind the butterflies were on the wing and it was most pleasant.
So cheer up Graham, as some pop group once said "Even the Bad Times are
Good" !

Well, the current GFS is quite optimistic for a ridge to move across
the UK from the middle of next week, so I will keep my fingers crossed
and hope for that scenario.
