MAY 2022
 
May
enjoyed the 3rd highest mean temperature in
67 years here, beaten only in 2017 and 2018. The mean min was the
2nd highest, and mean max 9th highest (in fact
2016, 2017, 2018, 2020 and 2022 are all in the top 9).
Much of the month had mean temperatures above average, except for the
final few days. There were no ground frosts or air frosts, one of 10
years having neither during May.
Rainfall was 87% of normal, but was spread throughout the month, so 23
raindays, which ranks 3rd greatest number for May, but only
14 wetdays and 5 very wet days.
Half the month experienced at least 4 hours of "bright
sunshine", with the longest daily sunshine over 11 hours recorded
on the 13th, 14th and 27th. Windiest
days were 10th to
11th, 13th, 17th, and 25th
to 27th.
