Dull, cool and damp

It's weekend and the good weather from last week has well and truly departed now.  Today was wet at times, cool and overcast.  As the light started to fade there was a brief glimpse of the sun as it set behind the school.  A stark back edge to the cloud cover hinted that tonight might be cold and clear, so maybe tomorrow might just be ok?
