I'm simply pointing out that the data stored on that site is unreliable: I check routinely against Hurn (hence my mention of that station), but I've also had occasion to check Heathrow for example - same problems. My *strong* advice is to NOT use that site, *unless* you have a second source to check against. Like many sources on the internet, although it looks 'wonderful' and the answer to all prayers, great care should be taken before slavishly using the data. Wikipedia is a prime example :-( Martin. -- Martin Rowley West Moors, East Dorset (UK): 17m (56ft) amsl Lat: 50.82N * Long: 01.88W NGR: SU 082 023 Martin, Having looked in more detail at the data from said website there does appear to be some holes in their data so, I agree with you, use my assumptions from the data with caution. It would be great if someone that had access to the more reliable data held at the Met Office could confirm whether this past Winter has been colder in South Devon (Exeter Airport or, better still Teignmouth weather station) than the Winter of 1978-9.
