Quite breezy for the most part today, and with the wind coming from a warm and damp direction, no surprise that there was still plenty of cloud, a humid feel to the air and some rain around. There was never much rain though, and things did improve for a time in the afternoon when we saw some sunshine, but again not really the sort of weather we hope for in August.
