Weatherday: End of the beginning of independence

Damp winter morning in Stockholm (2016).

A dry and bright morning and afternoon. Hazy spells of sunshine. Cloud through the evening. 

Highest temperature 13deg in very light northerly breezes. 

On this day in 1916, the rebel forces in Dublin's General Post Office surrendered, ending the Easter Rising. Of the 485 people who were counted as having died during the rising, 260 were civilians.
