We first visited Shooters Bottom and then returned to Birling where we met up with PN & RK and we covered the lane, Belle Tout gully and scrub, Belle Tout wood and back to Birling. Jake also visited Beachy during the afternoon.
Met Office view
Warm, moist air continues to feed across areas south of a warm front across northern England. Within this zone there is some unstable air in the southern North Sea which will continue to produce some sporadic heavier bursts of rain today. To the north of the UK, cold air is beginning to edge south behind a set of cold fronts.
