Long sunny periods right on the coast, largely unbroken near Land's End. Plenty of cloud bubbled up just inland. A 'wave' on the front to the east did make the sunshine milky around noon, but not for long.

As a result the highest temperatures were right on the coast. 15.4C at St Ives, 15.3C in Penzance, 15.4C St. Martin's Scilly. Due to the land based cloud, even the most exposed coastal spots were a couple of degrees up on just inland. E.g. Land's End 14.7C, Camborne 13C.

The front did give some heavy bursts of rain last night, 7.8mm here in Penzance, but the sun was out by the time I emerged.

This http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/satpics/latest_uk_vis.html shows how the tip of Cornwall has just poked out into the clear sunny conditions.

Much the same today, prolonged sunshine on windward coasts, with Cu (and some Cb) inland. There was some 'Boscastle' type convergence along the north coast yesterday as a sea breeze created convergence right along the coast from Trevose head eastwards.

These conditions, when apart from some thin high cloud all the cloud is land based, is the time to be on Scilly http://www.scillyman.co.uk/Lowertown_Cam.html.

I'd be tempted to have a day trip if I wasn't having the kitched replaced.
Still virtually as good at Land's End http://www.landsendweather.info/

Surfy today as well

Nice day in Dawlish; dry, though some cloud from time to time. 14C max and pleasant in the sunshine. A good day for getting things done in the garden.
