A lovely day again, and a little warmer too

A clear start with light winds meant temperatures fell low again overnight, but sunshine from the start and lighter winds with higher pressure meant the mercury rose a little higher, peaking at 19.7°C.  Fair weather cumulus during the day, thickening briefly around lunchtime but generally offering good spells of sunshine throughout.  Skies clearing after tea, and as the wind died away, temperatures fell too.
