Wettest Day of the Year!

It's only mid morning on Thursday but surprisingly it has become our wettest day of the year. I say surprisingly because we've only had 3.4mm (0.13in) of rainfall early on Thursday morning but that relatively small amount still makes it the wettest day this year.

The cold weather at the beginning of February meant I didn't get round to posting the facts and figures for January. The low rainfall in January was more worthy of note than the temperature. As you can see from the table below January this year was easily the driest over the last few years.

Temperature wise this January turned out to be more or less average with some rather mild days cancelled out by some colder days.

We're now starting to get a bit of colour into the garden. The hellebores have been in flower for a few weeks and our snowdrops are in bud and will be in flower any day now.
