Tuesday 17/02/15 Report

A clear start, so as I was standing on the station platform at 7am it was noticeably light, showing that winter is gradually passing and the days are getting longer (around 4 mins a day at the moment!).  The day continued bright with plenty of sunshine, but with a gusty wind picking up for a time in the afternoon.  Cloud moving in overnight with rain on the way.
