Default Large range in the Chipstead valley

The maximum temperature on Sunday 23rd May was 28.0C and with a
minimum of just 4.9C the range of temperature in the Chipstead Valley,
Surrey,was 23.1C. However on June 1st 1994 the max was 25.2C and min
minus 0.1C. On April 16th 2003 an even greater range was measured with
a max of 26.7C and min of -0.4C. It is just possible the frosts may
return here later this week. The minimum has been down to minus 4C on
the morning of the 12th this month.

Thanks Ian, very interesting stats.

How come we don't hear so much from you lately?

Noticed an even larger diurnal range on the 23rd at Santon Downham in
Suffolk. Max 28.4C with a min of 4.6C and diurnal range of 23.8C.
A rather more modest range of 16.5C here in Raunds, Northants.
Max 26.7C, Min 10.2C. No sandy soil or frost hollow here ;(

Ian,

Raunds, East Northants. 63m amsl. NGRSP9972.

Yes thanks for your info. The sandy Breckland do record some
extraordinary minima and nearby to Santon Downham Lynford I believe
recorded minus 9.4C on the 11th May 1941. That would be very low for
most people even in the midde of January.
