Drizzle to start but brightening

Heavy drizzle to start from a thick layer of stratus cloud.  By 11 o'clock the cloud layer quickly started to break up as the air pressure continued to rise, allowing spells of sunshine.  The fine weather continued throughout the rest of the day, with plenty blue skies and sunshine.
