The temperature summary readings I have posted here were recorded using
electronic thermometers as opposed to standard sheathed minimum & maximum
thermometers which were used previously. It seemed that the old
thermometers had become inaccurate since I last checked them, over &
under-reading by as much as 2C.

Comments on the perceived accuracy of this month's data would be helpful.

Nick, I thought before I read this second post that the figures you quoted
looked very much on the button. Pershore, for instance, had mean max
10.6, mean min 5.4, abs max 14.0, abs min -3.3.

Are you maintaining your m-i-g readings ... in order to see
if there is any systematic correction you could apply to your
earlier records?
