Yet another dry month with only 51mm of rain falling, it seems as though the dry weather in mainland Europe has now moved to the UK.

However 25mm fell during the last 4 days of October so it may now be over.

These measurements are taken by the farm buildings but on the meadows by the river Dane which are 25m lower I suspect the temperature has probably fallen as low –2 or even –4 c.
