It must be very rare in summer for High Wycombe's maximum to be on a par
with Fair Isle's.

It may have happened last Thursday which was a nastier day than today.

Incidentally why the extremely low temperatures? (I think below 15C in
August, being equivalent to sub-zero in January, can warrant that
label) Typical temperatures for a wet August day IMX are in the range
17-19C (for southern England), and the temperatures observed in
Hereford, etc, suggest this wasn't a particularly cool airmass.
