Not certain how it would be categorised but last night's (a.m to be precise)
temperature was 17.9C at 01.50 a.m and it is currently 10.6C at 19.15. I
suppose if you took daylight maximum of 13.5C and dark hours maximum of
18.5C in a 24 hour period it would be some sort of record, especially for
October.

P.S At last a spell of over 10mm of rain. ;-)
