Default West Cornwall -18C dewpoint @ 09:00

Yes it's humid! Dewpoints seem to range from 17C to 18C across west Cornwall and Scilly. Still plenty of drizzle around, especially on the hills, don't be fooled by the dry looking radar.

In Penzance at 09:00 the mist has just cleared, it was 18.8C. If it does brighten up properly it's going to get pretty steamy.

15.6mm of rain overnight, making today the wettest day since 1st August, luckily it fell at night.

I rather boggled at first, as you left out the space between the hyphen
and the 18C and I read it as -18C!

Ah yes. I'm not sure what the lowest dewpoint ever recorded in Penzance is, that's the sort of thing that Philip Eden would have in an instant.
