Monthly Summaries

Our statistics are very localised. The maximum, minimum temperatures, humidity %, dew point, heat index, wind direction and strength are all recorded by the fully electronic weather station mounted above the verandah. The rainfall figures are from the automatic rain gauge in the west garden. Measurements are transmitted to the indoor console.
