Strong spring sunshine

Another day of strong spring sunshine, and again our temperature record is broken, today reaching over the magic 20°C.  There were some subtle differences to yesterday though: not quite as cold overnight and during the afternoon we did see more in the way of cloud.  Subtle clues perhaps that the weather is changing?  Maybe, but not until Friday, so we're told.
