Stuck in a rut

The weather seems stuck in a rut at the moment as today was again fairly cloudy, with light winds and cool temperatures.  There was a little more sunshine in fairness during the morning, and again it's been dry, so not too bad all in all.  The cloud did clear in the evening, allowing the stars to come out and temperatures to fall.
