Sunshine totals ranged from 89.0h at East Malling (Kent) -
presumed KZ sensor - to 25.5h at Lerwick (KZ sensor).
Percentages ranged from 239 at Kirkwall (Orkney)
to 68 at Watnall (Notts)
A low sunshine total at Lerwick and a very high percentage at Kirkwall
seems like an unlikely combination. Could one figure or the other be in
error?

No, John ... the Lerwick figure, although the smallest in the country, was
still 175% of the local average! They don't get much sunshine that far
north in December ...
Thanks. I knew that the mean would be low, but I hadn't expected it to
be quite _that_ low.
