Looks like two bands of cloud moved in down here between 5 and 6.45am which stopped the temperature dipping any further.

AI: DANA stands for "Depresión Aislada en Niveles Altos," which translates to "Isolated Depression at High Levels." It refers to a meteorological phenomenon characterized by a pocket of cold air in the upper atmosphere that separates from the main air stream, often leading to severe weather events.

Spectacular cloudage above the Surrey Hills today. Cirrocumulus in bands converging towards the horizon, composed of supercooled water droplets producing spectacular iridescence through diffraction. Virga trails of heavier ice crystals drifted down where the water droplets froze spontaneously.

It’s a real struggle to decide who to vote for now. I don’t align with Labour policies, couldn’t bring myself to vote Reform, have strong beliefs we should continue moving towards net zero and don’t believe we should fully rejoin the EU! I don’t think I’m the only one with such a dilemma.

By the time most of us wake up tomorrow, we’ll officially be in astronomical autumn, following the #equinox which occurs at 01:05 BST. The sun will be directly over the Equator as it heads south towards the winter solstice on 21st December. The dark season begins…

It's the lastest date on record without a hurricane forming in the Atlantic hurricane season, partly thanks to El Nino. However, forecasters have been monitoring the potential for a Medicane to form over the central Mediterranean.
