A cool but dry start to May

A fairly nondescript day really - fairly cloudy and cool with northerly winds nudging the temperatures down despite some sunny spells every now and again.  Thankfully after a few days of rain to end April, we had a dry start to May, but the forecast is fairly unsettled at the moment so there's not much chance it'll last.
