I've some new charts to show the change in temperature, wind and rain over the 24 hours, and these show quite nicely what happens as the front first approaches and then passes. The wind slowly picks up throughout the morning, as does the temperature, but as the front passes over there's a noticeable dip in temperature, up to 5°C, and a fairly brief spell of heavy rain: we had 2.1mm between 1pm and 2pm. After the front, the temperature gradually climbed again, and with clearer skies it felt quite pleasant.
