Not only has this been the wettest October at Leuchars, Fife, since
the station opened in 1921 (the previous record was established only
two years ago), it appears to have been the wettest in the
Leuchars/St.Andrews/Cupar area since at least 1866. The
provisional total there stands at 183mm (almost three times the
norm).

Aviemore's total sunshine of 32 hours is the lowest in Oct since
sunshine recording began there in, I think, 1987 (even allowing
for the change in sensor), and the lowest in the
mid-Strathspey/Glenmore Forest district since the
extraordinary October of 1974.
