Default August vs September

At my location, it has been a warm month, but not as warm as August, and
anything but sunny. It will be the wettest September in my record (it
is raining as I type).


At the other end of the east coast (Canterbury in Kent):

September:
Mean Max 23.4C
Mean 18.4C
Mean Min 13.4C
Rain 7.6mm

August:
Mean Max 21.6C
Mean 17.2C
Mean Min 12.9C
Rain 110.5mm

Only two days in September have failed to reach 20C (19.8C on 22nd and
19.5C on 25th).

8 wet days in September (so far!); 8 dry days in August!
