Cool, showers in afternoon

Cool, with the wind in the north or north-west.  Starting clear with plenty of sunshine, but the clouds started building from the word 'go' and by early afternoon there were some brief but heavy showers, all accompanied by a blustery wind that contrasted sharply with the still conditions from earlier in the morning.
