3rd sunniest month here this year so far, still way behind April and
just behind March!

April - 228.7 hrs
March - 157.8 hrs
August - 153.2 hrs (1st to 28th)

We can forget the rest!

I suppose that September is now the only month with a faint chance of
beating April's figure. After that the days would be too short. I would
think that April being the sunniest month of the year must be extremely
rare.
