SUNNY summer weather has been put on hold with the arrival of rain and dark skies in Stroud this morning.

However, any overnight rain will clear south-eastwards through the morning to leave a largely dry and cloudy day.

Through the afternoon the cloud will break to give way to some welcomed sunshine and here it will feel rather warm.

Temperature will still reach a fairly high 22°C this afternoon.

It will also stay largely dry through the night with some clear spells developing, before cloud thickens from the west and rain arrives for some by dawn.

Feeling cooler than recent nights, with a minimum temperature of 15°C.
