Bit of a boring weather day today with a dull and Grey start to our day but not particularly cold.  The cloud seemed to thin out gradually all day until late this afternoon we actually saw the sun.  Max temperature 17.0c at 14:23, from an overnight low of 7.8c at 4:30.  Wind started the day close to the Max wind gust of 21 km/hr at 7:34 but then fall away to less than 10 km/hr by 3:00am before building up again, however the max was unsustainable and despite a small rally in the late afternoon had dropped right away to less than 10 km/hr by 18:00 where it has stayed ever since.  Wind direction pretty much between South East and East until 12:00 then drifted to be a Northerly for the afternoon but was back to the South Easterly by 18:00, hard to tell the current wind direction as there isn't any . . . wind that is.  Outdoor humidity got down to 48% today and has not managed to get to 99% for almost 3 days now, currently at 76%.  The barometer has continued its upward trend today but ran out of steam a couple of times and dropped slightly while taking a breath before rising again but I fear that it is pretty much as high as its going reach at 1020.6 hPa before its next decent.
