JUNE 2005
|
||
|
The first half of the month saw
little by way of noteworthy weather with the exception of a number of
cool nights and the continuing dry theme. Daytime temperatures were consistently
around ±3C of the average with the exception of a brief warm spell
on the 8th to 10th, and the weather unremarkable. On the 18th, high
pressure settled over the southern UK before slipping SE, allowing very
warm air to push over the southern half of the UK. The maximum temperature
of 31.9º on the 19th was a new June site record high since recording
began in 1984. The second half of the month was mostly hot - pushing the
monthly temperature above average - and often humid. However, thunderstorms
were scarce and the total rainfall for the month was significantly below
average for the 8th successive month.

= deviation from 20 year average. The monthly mean is calculated from all
logged temperatures and is not the simple mean of the daily minimum and
maximum. THW = Shaded Heat Index calculated with cooling/warming effect of wind and humidity to give an apparent temperature. THSW = Unshaded Heat Index calculated with cooling/warming effect of wind, humidity and full direct sunshine to give an apparent temperature. EVAPO-TRANSPIRATION is drying effect due to sun and wind, and is equivalent to "negative rainfall" |

'WIND ROSE' PLOT FOR THE MONTH
|
|
 |
The 'petals' represent wind direction and the length
represents frequency, i.e. in this case winds from the SSW were the most
common, followed by the N. The colours represent the strength of the wind, with black being weakest through blue then lighter colours (cyan, light green, yellow, magenta, red) being stronger. This data excludes 'calm' readings. |
