Barbourne is about 3.5 miles north of here, across the other side of the
City.
My readings seem comparable to others posted on this NG, such as those from
Epping, Cheltenham etc.
I have a friend who has a station in Selly Oak, Bham. His mean values are
usually around 2C lower than mine. We have swapped thermometers, altered
recording positions but the difference still remains. There is an altitude
difference but that does not explain it all. As for Coventry, I don't know
why yours are lower.
Did Paul Damari record higher values as well?
I have spoken to Philip Eden about my 'high' values. I do have a south
facing sheltered garden and he reckons that certain aspects can 'cook' on
sunny, calm days. This does not explain why my values are high at this time
of year when the sun's strength is weak, or the winter. My thermometers have
been calibrated and are the MetO approved sheathed min & max type placed in
a Stephenson Screen.
