A fine evening. Mostly clear skies with just a bit of high cloud. Breeze died down a bit now compared to earlier this evening. Mild at 15*C. Expecting a fine morning with rain arriving by mid afternoon - what a lovely summer were having!!. I bet it's going to be sunny and warm by the time i'm going abroad for two weeks on the 24th. It always is.
Well it is well overcast, with the hills to the SW now being covered in low cloud, still remianing dry at the moment,Wind moderate WSW,Temp 12.9ºC Looking at the radar looks like the rain is well into the Lands End, up to St Ives area. Well it could be further up only that radar was taken 2 hours ago. Anyway good night to all.

An unexpected and rather eerie red sky in the NW at the moment, which doesn't extend to the SW sky where the rain is coming from. I wonder what I would have thought about the weather if I couldn't see the radar picture.
Showery day but south Antrim missed most of them, very heavy shower at 1 pm and then dry and quite sunny until 8.30 pm when there was a heavy and prolonged shower, not quite over as yet
