It won’t come as a surprise to anyone that the main feature of 2012 was the rainfall. We did have a relatively dry start to the year with below average totals for February and March. Droughts of almighty proportions were predicted with suggestions that no matter how much it rained the situation would takes years to correct itself. It hasn't stopped raining much at all following those predictions which turned out to be absolute rubbish.
By the end of December we had 879mm of rainfall in Ossett compared with an expected 652mm or around a third more than we might expect on average.
Our average temperature for 2012 of 9.71°C was more than one degree centigrade cooler than 2011 which averaged 10.95°C.
Let’s hope for a warmer and drier 2013!
