A band of rain passed through overnight, the tail end of which meant a wet rush hour for commuters. Afterwards, the cloud cleared dramatically, bathing us in sunshine in lovely blue skies. Always a breeze around, though nothing problematic, but again the air was coming from a cool direction which held temperatures back throughout the day. Once again feeling ok in the sunshine but a little on the cool side for August when in the shade.
