After yesterdays plunge into October it was mild again today but it was still blowing a gale. The strength of the wind was stronger today than either Monday or Tuesday. A few showers gave us just under one millimetre of rain, an amount which is no good at all for the garden with the gale force wind drying up the ground even more.
I know it’s very early in the month but as this amazingly mild start to October continues I wonder if we might just make a monthly high average temperature for October having already set the highest daily temperature.
I reckon at this stage of the month we are well above the highest monthly average for the warmest October on record set in 2001. In that year the average monthly temperature by the 5th of the month was 14.68°C and this year it’s 16.90°C well above 2001 but of course there’s still a long time to go.
