Default Repeat performance ...

Are the British Isles getting cloudier I wonder?
This would be consistent with GW and increasing specific humidity due to
warmer oceans.

... half-way through the month (approx.) and once again (as last
month/July), although the overall mean temperature [based on Hurn data] is
well above average, it's only because the *night*-time values are heavily
+ve (+1.8/w.r.t. 1971-2000), with the *day*-time maxima running
at -0.4degC.

At the same point in July, the 'split' was numerically exactly the same
+1.8min/-0.4max.

As of this morning, 6 out of 15 nights have had a local minima no lower
than 15°C.
