Weather situation: Warm front occlusion passed our area during night. Solid layer of cloudiness is slowly dissolving. We expect weak thermal development later in the afternoon when the sun appears but again as yesterday the strong north wind will complicate the situation. More info at 10:00 am at briefing.
