Last recordable rainfall here in the Otter Valley was the 22nd of March. But
the last substantial rainfall, i.e., greater than 5 mm was on the 6th of
March.
I have never known the grass to turn brown in April but it is now!
Currently at 21:20, 10.7C, RH 60%, DP 3.3C, 1019.6 mb (S), Wind calm NNW,
12.4 hours of bright sunshine today.

Bit wetter in Haytor and grass is green and growing quickly. Soil dry on top but
moist underneath.
Just 1.1 mm rain in April.
Last larger amount of "rain" was on 29th March when we collected 6.8 mm but that
was from hail, sleet and snow showers!
Different world on Dartmoor just southwest of Exeter.
2150 Temp. 8.8C.
