Suddenly realised you were referring to the 21.1C recorded on the 2nd.
Hmmm, does seem a little high. Most others post around 16-18C for that day.
I have no explanation, could be a mistake but I am usually very careful when
writing these things down.
It would be interesting to know what PD on the other side recorded......
Regards

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.

Nick, your station isn't near Barbourne is it?
:-)

Just wondered:-)
