Coldest day since January 30th 2014

On monday 19th the thermometer eventually managed to reach 3.3C but as sunset approached it dropped steadily until around 11.00pm when the lowest temperature was registered at -4.9C. Thereafter a slight rise to -3C was maintained until dawn when it dropped a degree.
The almost continuous direct sunshine totalled 6.62 hours, which surprisingly, was the highest daily total since the end of September 2014.
