Weatherday: Baby in a billion

It was forecast, but somehow going from the sun of the last week into this morning's cloudy start is a bit of a shock.

Fresh easterly winds will also bring down the temperature, to a max of 11deg in the Kilcullen area. Likely to stay reasonably dry, though, and there will be sunny spells in mid-afternoon and later in the evening.

On this day in 2000, a baby girl named Aastha born in Delhi in India was chosen as that country's symbolic billionth person when the population officially reached that number.

On This Day podcasts on weekdays only. You can hear those of the past week here.
