February 2020 |
 |
|
Moody Dartmoor skies over
Bellever Tor on a windy, mild February day |
|
Warmest and wettest February in
my modest record (2005), with below average sunshine. The first
frost-free February in what is normally my most frostiest month. The
windiest month since December 2015 with 5495 miles. Even if this
month had an extra two days, it would unlikely to have beaten
December 2015 which had 6632 miles. Though this February did clock
up the highest daily wind run of 500 miles on the 9th. |
