Although there was no strong sunshine yesterday the warm, moist southerly air pushed the thermometer to a maximum of 13.1C, a couple of degrees down on previous highs but still 3C above the average for March. The warmth was maintained overnight, peaking just after 1am but dropped a couple of degrees to give a minimum of 11.1C.
This morning we have been greeted by sunshine breaking through variable cloud that gave the warmest morning, when readings were taken at 08.00, since 8th December.
Rainfall total for March now totals 48.5C, which is 9.5mm below the average for March. However, this is offset by evaporation now totalling 37mm so all but about 11mm of precipitation this month has remained in the ground.
