Plenty of sunshine again today, the March total now 160 hours even over the nearby moors.

Maximum Temperature today 12.0C, so feeling perfectly pleasant outside. The wind is still aligned with the peninsula helping to provide some shelter.

No sunshine in Tideswell today but the total for the month is 108.1
hours which, for here, is quite impressive. The 2009-2019 average for
March is 84.7 hours so we've done quite well.

Second sunniest March according to my solar panels which were installed in 2012.

2012 3rd sunniest this decade (2011-2020) here, but 2020, 2019, 2012 all very close.

Still sunny

A really notable spell for sunshine now.

Beer, wine & pasties delivered yesterday, just trying to keep a local business going.

Sunniest months over the nearby moors at Bosullow (since 2011)
2020 163.7 hours
2019 156.5 hours
2012 144.2 hours

Camborne
2012 159 hours
2019 150 hours
2020 150 hours
So same months, in a different order.

Looking at Roger's website, the sunniest places on his list are
Manston 185.7 hours
Weybourne 182.3 hours

So you did well Nick.

I'd guess 175-180hrs right on the coast in Penzance, based on the Bosullow figure.
