It's a dry cloudy start after a little overnight rain. Not enough rain to register in the gauge so less than 0.2mm. Should be a mainly dry day with a few sunny spells later but an odd shower can't be ruled out. Cooler today with a high of 17°c. Looking wet tomorrow. #Brampton

It's a dry mainly cloudy start with a little brightness from time to time. Will remain similar most of the day with a small chance of an odd shower. Feeling cooler than last few days, high around 19°c, the breeze will continue from the west. Hot spell has now ended

A few showers possible at first this morning. Looks like a heavy one approaching Morecambe Bay area. Once showers have cleared it should be a dry day with some warm sunshine. Maximum temperature around 25°c. #Brampton #Cumbria

[Paul Crabtree 🇬🇧 @pacrabtree]

A few thunderstorms may graze SW Cumbria in the next hour. Not sure if they will reach as far as our patch #Brampton #Cumbria
