Not unusual for this site to be cold - for example, these are the
minima for the last few years for August:-
2003: 5.0, 2004: 6.9, 2005: 6.4, 2006: 4.6, 2007: 5.5

It did surprise me when I left my flat in East Cliff at 7:15am (cycling
- in shorts and t-shirt) and it was actually cold! Luckily I was only
going as far as the station and it had warmed up enough by the time I
had the 30-minute cycle to work in Southampton.

It would be really interesting to get some comparison between the
temperatures recorded at Hurn and those actually in Bournemouth town.
