November 2005 was a month of complete contrast. The first 2 weeks of the
month were very mild - 17.4C was recorded on the 2nd - and also fairly
damp. The latter 2 weeks of the month were cold with 9 air frosts. The
temperature on the 29th peaked at only 4.1C. Snow (albeit very light and
not settling) was observed early on the 25th and during the early hours
of the 27th. Hail was also observed at 4pm on the 24th. Rainfall was
significantly below average again with only 30.5mm (38%). Only 1 month
in the last 15 (July) has exceeded the local average for rainfall. The
total rainfall for 2005 currently stands at 431.5mm. Pressure of
1037.6mb is the highest pressure that I've recorded since before
September 2004; only two days later the pressure had fallen to 984.5mb
which is just short of the lowest that I've recorded since before
September 2004.
