This is a private automatic weather station (AWS) based in South East England, and reported data is neither official nor part of the UK Met Office network. This AWS does not conform to Met Office standards - which are far too stringent for most amateurs but the readings give a good indication of weather conditions in the "average" local back garden.

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.
