OMG, the data for March are so anomalous. Only 59.3 mm of rain, far less than the LTA of 129.0. Less even than the 2022 low of 67.8 mm. The mean temperature 8.9C was more than a degree warmer than the LTA (7.5C). The soil temperature was more than 1.5C warmer than in prior years. Is it a one-off or are we accelerating into the unknown. I must say, it has been rather pleasant. The Costa del Mayo.
