OK, July's not quite finished but a friend just emailed to ask "Is
this the windiest July on record? It's been real struggle cycling to
work recently".

Doon 'ere in Devon it hasn't been as windy as July 08, but only just (so
far).

Here are a few figures.

2008 2009 (1st - 29th)
Max Gust: 35 34
Ave Max: 21 21
Ave Wind: 4.7 4.3
Wind Run: 3520 2833
Calm (days): 4.5 5.1

Figures in mph, and wind run is in miles.
