Mist and low cloud is trying ever so hard to roll in from the sea here at Folkestone Harbour but at the same time the sun is doing it's best to beat it back. Feels lovely and fresh in this brisk SW wind, though.

Temperature is holding steady at 21 C, though.

EDIT: A few minutes later and the sea-induced low cloud appears to be winning this "tug of war".

EDIT again: Oh, wait, it's now turning sunny again.

RE-EDIT again . . . Oh, it's come over cloudy again. It's changing more often than a set of traffic lights.

Must be where sea fog is trying to move onto the coast under this fresh SW wind and there is this "oscillating" effect with the sun and fog trying to balance each other out.

Decent sunny weather with few clouds and fresher than late. 25.5C.

The low cloud is there because there is a parcel of higher humidity air over riding the comparitively cooler sea. Standard summer stuff really for a maritime coastal location, its alwways been this way and always will be.

A truly lovely day today, perhaps the best of this spell for us. Warm at 21C, sunny, slight breeze and clear. No murk or haze which is excellent.
