Default [WR] Whistlefield : Highest Temperature so far this Year.

Sunshine NIL and max. temperature +6.3C. How many degrees latitude south
of
you am I? :-)


Roughly about 6 degrees further south.

Today really been dreadful here in Devon. It has been drizzling/light rain
all day. Such a contrast to just a few days ago when we had a succession of
days with cloudless skies.

And hasn't it been cold! I was sowing some parsnip and onion seeds in the
greenhouse today and the thermometer in there did not go above 11C today; it
was knocking on 35C on most days this week.

Max today of 8.3C and 6.8 mm of rain. Second day this month without any
sunshine.

Thankfully it is looking like this cold, wet weather by next weekend will be
just a distant memory!
