Default [WR] Dartington, South Hams - an exceptional day

Last night's min -0.6 deg. C.
Today's max +10.9 deg. C
RH dropped to 31% at 13:27 (DP -7.2 deg. C at this time) which is the
lowest figure recorded at this site since the AWS was installed back on
3 December 2005. There must be enormous moisture loss occurring from
the soil at the moment as a result of the low RH, persistent day time
winds and trees starting to absorb ever increasing quantities.

Strong unbroken sunshine - 10 KWh generated from the pV array (equal
highest daily figure ever recorded in 4 years!), hot water tank heated
by 30 Thermomax evacuated tubes at +76 deg. C (not a record!).

Current 21:50

Temp +2.7 deg. C
DP -1.6 deg. C
RH 73%
Wind Calm
Pressure 1019.9 (rising slowly)

It's very early days but the 24-hr temp anomaly so far this month is
-0.7 deg C.

A gin-clear starry night outside. Tender plants wrapped up in
fleece...-3 deg. C is certainly possible tonight.

Regards,
Richard.
