With no precipitation on Monday it was only the fourth dry day this month. The current rainfall total is 62.9mm being 118% of the 35-year average.
Although it was a little warmer than many previous days this June the maximum of 19.5C was still 0.7C below the average. Likewise, the overnight minimum of 8.3C was below average (-1.8C).
Tuesday arrived with low cloud covering the Marlborough Downs and Savernake Forest that at times limited visibly, e.g. at 06.30, to 500m.
By 08.00 the fog had lifted and the temperature risen to 11.3C. The significant feature this morning is the total lack of any wind with both anemometers stationary at 08.00.
