Hi, All,
The North Sea influence has really set in now. Currently 124.3hr sun this
July. Will we beat last year's dismal 126.5hr? CEP Brooks in his book, The
English Climate (I think that is the title, but not the Lamb version),
describes the cloudy, humid Durham summer well.

Anyway, this is the least sunny month here since February!
March 164.4hr
April 229.7hr
May 197.1hr
June 177.5hr
July 124.3hr so far, dull week in prospect.

Your website ("orange") shows mean sunshine at Copley as 1480 hrs. Not
too bad for that latitude surely - and better than Durham's 1375 hrs
(1971-2000). But your July total is looking pretty lousy.
