Not much changed overnight except that the wind speed increased and, in response, we had a heavy surf breaking against the sea wall at the southern end of the Golspie promenade and cold bullets of raindrops soaking those few souls who ventured out, mostly dog walkers. It's certainly not weather for the local rowing club and....

We have an interesting forecast for the next 24 hours, by the end of which the temperature is supposed to have risen to 14C as the wind veers into the south.
