The temperatures have been falling for the past three days as the cooler air steam takes effect. The maximum of 9.2C was the lowest for a week but still 1.2c above the average. The brisk northeasterly breeze meant it felt cool outside with a touch of wind chill. It was the fourth consecutive day without sunshine under the grey, low cloud base.
The minimum overnight of 6.9C was also above average (+4.6C) thanks to the cloud cover.
