Another 4.0mm of rainfall took the monthly total to 104.4mm being 117% of the 38-year average.
The overnight minimum was 2.4C, just above average (+1.1C) due to the complete cloud cover but the brisk northwesterly meant wind chill was a factor for the first time thus month. The thermometer read 2.6C at 08.00 but outside it felt more like 0C.
