The number of frost days this winter has been unusually high with a total of 17 occurring over the 3 month period.

The distribution I found is even more unusual with 3 occurring in June (average 0.75 days) a record high for that month, 17 in July (average 1.50 days) a record high for any month & 0 in August (avg 3.25 days) a record low and is the first time that I’ve never recorded any frost in the month of August.

The Degree Symbol (°)

This is my first weather report where I’ve used the proper degree symbol (ie °), thanks to Tim Grugeon for telling me. This can be achieved by typing the numbers 0 1 7 6 while holding down the Alt Key. I found that this can actually save memory rather that using a superscripted o for the symbol (one of my graph files dropped 15kb by just replacing around 20 of these symbols).
