Could any kind soul help me with a few quick(ish) facts from the
British rainfall guides - whilst I have some info' I am missing a few years worth of data which I need for a compilation of local historical weather. Any help at all is greatly appreciated: circa 1875 - 1881 1.) Crosby Ravensworth - Reagill (WestmoreIand) - I have the data for 1882-1889 (when I believe the data ends) but now believe that reports were submitted at least back to 1875/6 can anyone supply the yearly rainfall/rain days for 1875-1881 and confirm the year in which the first entry appears the observer is a Mr. Wilkinson whom i believe was the school master 2.) Crosby Ravensworth 1946-48 - I have the yearly rainfall amounts, but would like to know the name of the observer and if anything more specific on location. 3.) Morland (westmoreland) - I believe that records cover the period 1902-42 and am missing data for: 1903/04/05, 1910, 1912 and 1916 i believe that the observer was a Mr F. Markham (1918 was a Miss Markham) and back to Mr. Markham in 1934-6 - maybe he was just missing in the war years?) many thanks to anyone who can help. the rainfall guides are really a great read - just so bloody difficult to aquire. |

British Rainfall 1947 simply says R.Eden Catchment Board 5"d, 1'rim agl and rain gauge 612'asl. http://badc.nerc.ac.uk/googlemap/midas_googlemap.cgi Will give you historical station details. Answering my own post. Just checked here http://badc.nerc.ac.uk/cgi-bin/midas...gi.py?id=12942 and it doesn't go as far back as you require -- George in Epping www.eppingweather.co.uk www.winter1947.co.uk |
