In between low pressure

Well the dry, fine weather from last week has truly departed now, and we're back in a run of Atlantic weather with a series of low pressures all jostling for position.  There's more energy in the sky with no view of the clouds staying the same for very long, but despite this, today has been mainly dry. Winds haven't been excessive either, and whilst the thermometer has been a little disappointing, we must remember we are now in mid-September.
