June’s Weather to Mid-month
It’s been fairly average except for the rain. Temperatures have been gradually cooling as one might expect heading into winter, but the daily average maximum of 14.4℃ is fairly normal. This could drop a little later as the month progresses, but the weather has improved on that of the second week. Sunshine is also around average with the equivalent of eight sunny days. Some spots have had a couple slight frosts, but that is of course usual for the time of year.
However, I am sure we are all aware that there has been more rain than normal, having already had around 100mm, when the monthly average is 90mm, but rainfall is enormously variable with only 7.7mm in all of June 2023 and 208mm in 2022.
With a good start to the second half of the month perhaps we can look forward to more sunny days. It’s the winter solstice (the shortest day), on Saturday, but we still have July, our coldest month ahead of us.
