Saw the warmest day of the year on the 27th, with the screen maximum reaching 26·5c.

A dry April for me, and a dry May so far.

0·0mm in the gauge. Nothing measurable since April 28th.

I've used a "normal" thermometer with the bulb encased in wax to retain the temperature as its read, and (like Michael has done) used a plastic piece of pipe hammered into the ground.

The thermometer is attached to a length of string and capped off with a old bottle top.

Still a very dry April so far with only 8·8mm recorded up to 2100 UTC on the 18th.

No real heavy rain for a while now.
