But it is the low soil temperatures that I find interesting.
At 1800 UTC:
50cm +3.0C
30cm +2.7C


Soil Temps today (1st)
30 cm = 7.0°C
100 cm = 8.3°C

My 30 cm soil temperature has now started to rise from a low of 6.4 on
the 28th, presumably because of the recent run of quite sunny days.

On the 9th March the 30 cm temperature surpassed the 100 cm temperature
and reached a high of 9.2°C before falling back with a series of cold
nights (12th - 15th). The lowest 30 cm March temperature was 6.0°C on
the 1st.
