The total rainfall amount for the 24 hours to 0800 today was 20.1mm. This is the highest daily amount since 14th February and brings the total for the month to 55.9mm, which is 92% of the 30-year average. The thermometer struggled to a maximum of only 10.7 C. as weak sunshine broke through in the late evening. The 30-year average is 13.7C. With constant rain for almost 10 hours during daylight hours it is not surprising that no sunshine registered for this period.

Guide to Setting up a Weather Station
It was suggested that I write a book on ‘How to Set up a Weather Station’. This book has now been added to the website. The book is an accumulation of my experience as an amateur, for over 30 years in Marlborough, during which time the equipment has been upgraded from manual to automatic and new instruments installed as money became available. Throughout this time new knowledge has been obtained and contacts made. I hope the contents might instil an interest with this fascinating hobby, which is also very topical, so that it might enable others to start a station, even if funds are limited.
