Looking at Wembury's Spring rainfall, there is a very small increasing trend of magnitude 15 mm 1985 to 2016. The standard deviation (expected variation about the average) is 51 mm.

72 mm my June total so far here Nick.
21 mm fell in 24 hrs to 1800 BST today.

June average 2001-2010 is 60 mm.

Yes, 49.7 mm was the May total.
Only 67% of the latest 10-year May average 2001-2010.

About 44 miles SW of you, this May certainly has not been particularly sunny here.
At least not according to my solar panels installed in 2012.

Here are my May figures in kWh

2016 237.7
2015 236.9
2014 247.6
2013 260.5
2012 274.9

Rain total 49.7 mm with two days of May left.
Unless we have a few downpours it is not likely to reach the average of 74.3 mm.

My total up to 19th May is only 23.5 mm.

The average 2001-2010 for May is 74.3 mm, so the rain so far is somewhat below average.

Sadly, it has not been especially sunny.

We've missed the rain both days here Greg.
0.1 mm on 10th, 0.4 mm today 11th.
Mind you, there looks to be some heavy rain heading west along the south coast tonight.
I wonder if it will keep its intensity.

Max of 21.0°C in my Stevenson screen.
Warmest since the 22°C of 22nd Aug 2015.

April mean temp. was 9.0°C. 1 deg.C below the 2001-2010 average. Still the 5th coldest since 2001. See above. Rain total was 57 mm. Average is 64 mm. It is noteworthy that colder than average Aprils are usually drier than average. An exception is April 2001 with mean temp. of 8.9°C and rain of 124 mm.

Did not quite make it to my latest air frost on 28th. Only got to 0.5C.

My latest air frost still stands at -1.0C on 26th April 1989.

Record began 1985.
