Default [WR] Warmest August day so far

A lovely sunny afternoon and evening after a generally cloudy morning. A
total of 5.8 hours of bright sunshine today and a maximum of 23.4°C.

Sunshine for this August has now past the 100 hours mark with 101.4 hours.
Pretty dismal when compared to the 252 hours recorded in August 2007.

Hopefully a lovely week to come which should help to push the SST up a bit
from the relatively cool 17°C which it is at the moment in Lyme Bay. Usually
the end of August sees the highest sea temperatures, last year at this time
the SST was 21°C.
