| OBSERVERS' NOTES |
|
| ALL Stations remark on the truly
exceptional weather with records |
|
| broken all over the region. In
general it seems to have been the warmest |
|
| and sunniest for over a century
(some as far back as the 1860s) |
|
| and the driest for up to 50 years |
|
| Middleton: Only the second snow
free April in 30 years |
|
| Mountsorrel: The month was dominated
by high pressure |
|
| Rosliston: Plant growth at least
a month early |
|
| Louth: Truly a remarkable month! |
