Hi there Warren
Besides which, observing the weather and recording meteorological
parameters is not about beating each other, otherwise we end up with
another Barbourne, or Oxford (re; yesterday's supposed 16 hours of
sunshine!).
Hi, Steve,
I certainly don't want to get into a debate about which part of the
country is best, imho everywhere has its merits and nowhere is perfect.
What I am questioning is why 16hr sunshine should be so suspect in
June? I have recorded 16 hours in July and am certainly not a record
seeker (I couldn't really be in Copley, could I). I expect, with
completely cloudless skies, I could see easily more than 16hr in June.
Screen min 2.9C grass -1.4C to add to the heated debate!
Best wishes,
Ken
