Default Weymouth 75.6mm

After sandcastle/grandson duty on Weymouth Beach I wandered back via
an Information board.

There was a daily sunshine rainfall chart. It was too much to remember
the sunshine figures BUT it was stated that the 30 year July average
was 35.4mm and this July had got to 75.6mm. The 30 year annual was
stated as 751mm.
I may try and find out who/where records this data

There was a heck of a breeze but many people wearing not too much, and
quite a few in the water, which the board said was 17.2C. There were
some 300 people out and about, and it was very pleasant to see.

It was a good place to go for the grandson but the journey was
annoyingly slow because of dire traffic

Thanks for that - an excellent source of info. I have sent a message
to try and find out what the current recording equipment consists of -
from a photo on the site it suggests a Davis VP1

I note that the 30 year average for August is very much higher than
July
