First New Record of the Decade

Early on Monday morning saw the first new all time record of the decade for my weather station. I must be honest and say it’s not the most exciting record to report but nevertheless it is a new record. At 01:05 the barometric pressure reached an all time 10 year high of 1047.6mb taking over from the previous record of 1045.7mb set on 08 February 2012.

 

Temperature & Barometer Records 18-20 January 2020

 

With high pressure in charge for Sunday the result was a lovely sunny if cold day. It made a welcome change from the dull and dreary weather of the last week or so. We headed off for a walk around the RSPB reserve at St Aidans. Lots of other people had the same idea.

 

 

The wildlife must have known we were planning a visit and either disappeared altogether or appeared tantalising at the maximum distance our zoom lenses could manage.

 

 

We might normally have done a little bit of allotmenting, but having visited on Saturday afternoon, we were aware that the ground was far too wet to do any work. We contented ourselves with harvesting a few vegetables and returned home. It will require a few dry and sunny days to dry out the beds and grass paths around them.

 

 

The plot will need some serious tidying up to get it ready for the start of the new growing season.
