Our lovely sunny day has very quickly turned cold bleak late afternoon with the rain just beginning to fall.
Down to 10.4 and like Intrepid I am off to find thermals.

New Plymouth: A day of two halves: sunny morning and cold afternoon. Got to 14.3 degrees, SW wind came up a little. Reports of heavy snow on Mt Taranaki.
My retrofitted wall insulation plus the house lot of new windows seems to be doing the trick: very easy to heat up the house.
Real test will be when  we get a SE in July!

Clear skies, though the stars are twinkling a lot.
