AUGUST 2010 - COOL, CLOUDY WITH A WET LAST 10 DAYS
August 2010 was a very cloudy month, only just sunnier than the record dull August of two years ago, with sunshine often confined to early and late hours of the day and cloud persisting through the middle of the day. This is turn kept temperatures low with not a single day even reaching 24 °C. In spite of this the first three weeks were rather dry, then some heavy and prolonged rainfall from the 22nd onwards boosted the rainfall to end well above average.
