First light: London, then New York
London is a notably mild 20°C/68°F at 6:08 a.m. BST, cloudy and breezy, with rain around the morning commute. The Met Office expects the cloud and wind to ease for most areas by mid-morning, followed by a bright afternoon near 25°C/77°F; tonight turns showery again, with a low near 14°C/57°F. A light shell earns its place before breakfast, but the afternoon should be good for a west-London walk. Met Office, updated 05:43 BST
New York gets the cleaner day: 63°F and overcast in the small hours, then mostly sunny with a high near 74°F. Tonight becomes mostly cloudy around 67°F; wind should be calm before turning southwest near 6 mph. National Weather Service
