Default I'm glad I'm not in Gt Yarmouth

Rain on the way for them.

Sun is out here.
Mr Blue Sky and all that.
Rather pleasant.

12C and rising
Wind west now and only 5 knots.
Far more agreeable compared with yesterday's gloom.

The sun is out, the sky is blue
There's not a cloud, to spoil the view
But its.......bah!

Sunny here too now the rainless cold front has passed through. Then
again, even before there were a few glimpses of the sun but nothing like
yesterday's unbroken sunshine.

Temperature 11.6C and falling slowly after peaking at 12.8C this afternoon.

Still waiting to beat the highest temperature of the year so far with
16.3C on the 9th January.

David Braine said yesterday would be the warmest day of the year so
far.... not for 'ere.

Absolute cracking afternoon here, with little wind a a mid afternoon max of 11.8C

A good few in the sea at Perranuthnoe, where is was sheltered from the NW breeze.
Couple of pics http://www.easterling.freeserve.co.uk/pn.html (Look away Alan!)

Last year at the same time there was NO sand at the bottom of the slip in the bottom picture. I think winter 2013-14 was near enough unique for the persistent and unusually southerly WNW-ESE track of major depressions.

They're hardy souls.... SST between 9.5C and 10C, brrrr! I haven't
surfed at this time of the year for many years now. Need the SST to
reach +15C before I am ready to venture in (wetsuit required).

I had a paddle on the beach on Friday and my toes went numb. The SST is
8.5C in Lyme Bay at the moment so a tad below normal. On this day last
year the SST was 9.7C.

Hard to believe the offshore SST reached a rather pleasant 20.8C last July.

I guess it depends on your location - yesterday we had 15.9, which
was the warmest by nearly 2 degrees C.
