Hi, Stephen,

How do these stand compared with record daily extremes for this
country? I think Rickmansworth had 28.3C back in the 1930s, but did
Tulloch Bridge record -5C to 25C (30degC) sometime in the 1970s?



Think it was Tummel Bridge, -7C to 22C May 1978

I've never recorded more than a 19C daily range at my plateau site


Thanks, Stuart,

It's all coming back to me now! Spent many a holiday in the area,
wonderful!

Best wishes,
Ken
