This game was over, in terms of a Durham win, after the first 10 overs of their second innings last night.
They lost three wickets during that period of gloomy cricket, one when most people in the ground would not have expected to see any play.
Even though the lights were on it was dark. The sky leaden in colour and it felt like the end of October, not August.
Durham resumed this morning on 15-3, needing another 405 to beat Somerset. But the reality was they needed to bat out the day for a draw.
Archie Vaughan got the first wicket of the day, as nightwatchman Callum Parkinson was out for 18, while Jack Leach took the other two wickets to fall before lunch, including that of the other night watchman, George Drissell, for a career-best 33.
Ollie Robinson also fell for four. So at six down this is very much a battle for survival on another gloomy, but humid afternoon, in Taunton.
