Mean Pressu 1022.2 hPa


That led me to wonder what the highest mean pressure is for (a)
September and (b) any month in the UK. (I suspect that January and
February might feature strongly in the latter category, winter Highs
tending to be more intense.)

Bright Sunshine: 119.3 hr


That's considerably lower than I would have expected. It seems to have
been a very sunny month in my part of Surrey, not that far away.

Average Wind Speed: 3.0 kt


That, together with the mean pressure, shows just how anticyclonic a
month it has been.
