Sun hours today a whopping 2.3 hours bringing the May total to 107.8 hours.
Only 1983 with 101.5 hours has been duller in the last 45 years.
Start of June looks a bit grim in these parts

Sunshine a little below the average here too for May with 189 hours.

May 1983 might have been a dull and cold one but look at the summer that
followed. It seemed to be one of endless sunny days right through the
school holidays (I only have one memory from 1976, that of brown grass -
I was too young).
