LATE REPORT

 

This report was about 1 month late due to the following reasons:

·         My father & I began building a mobile Stevenson Screen.

·         More shifts than usual at my work.

 

 

RECENT ADDITIONS TO STATISTICS LIST

                       

1.     Fully computerised my weekly averages data for Minimum, Maximum Air Temperatures & Rainfall.

2.     No new statistics have been added, though some of my statistic averages have been re-calculated. This is the first month that I will use these new averages. Reasons for this being done include:

·         Data being taken with equipment that was more sensitive than my weather station, &

·         Data being recorded outside of my official (or any) Stevenson Screen. See below for all Data alterations.
