Default [summary/prelim] July 2006 Bracknell (Tawfield)
These figures are based on a re-constructed climatology for this station
since 1971: it's been cobbled together from three different stations
with short overlapping periods:

In this composite record for our corner of Bracknell (old-style
Easthampstead Park) (1971-2005), the previous warmest July (& warmest
any-named month) occurred in 1983, with a value of 20.0degC. This year
(2006), with a value of 20.6degC, we appear to have comfortably exceeded
this value.

Using that same series, looking at June & July combined, the previous
warmest two such pairings occurred in 1976 (17.8degC) & 1983 (17.5degC).
This year, with a value of 18.6degC (provisional), again we have notably
exceeded these values.

Martin.
