Default Penzance. Wind & Rain again, 200mm In Dec.

Not so windy here Graham (max gust today = 23 mph), but wet again. And
another day with a maximum temperature 10°C.

The warmth since the 14th has been quite sustained, and so has the rain.
Dec 14th - 26th:
Mean min = 5.4°C
Mean max = 11.1°C
Mean = 8.3°C
Rain = 120 mm.

Dec 1st - 26th
Mean min = 3.3°C
Mean max = 9.5°C
Mean = 6.4°C
Rain = 142 mm.

No daffodils in my garden except the native variety (they won't flower
until Feb/March), but the primroses have been flowering now since the
start of the month. And the grass keeps growing but the ground is so
saturated and soft that mowing the lawn is impossible at the moment.

A clear, starry evening with the moon shining brightly

(19:40), 9.1°C, RH 83%, DP 6.4°C, 1005 hPa (R), Wind 9 mph SW.
