End of rant from DULL Weston Coyney.

Well, if it's any consolation it has been annoyingly cloudier here
for the last few days than anticipated. Lots of low cloud and mist
keeps coming in off the sea making it feel chilly at times.


Rain on the way Nick! Enjoy :-)
Prolonged dry spell though on the cards as we go into May.

Highest temperature in Haytor so far this year is 16.7C.
Rain so far this month 46.0 mm (AWS). Average for whole month is 92mm.
Soil is now starting to become dry but still moist and grass is growing
furiously and the daffodils are still looking splendid. We love dry weather
on Dartmoor as it is a welcome change :-)
Reservoir levels falling though.
