November Monthly climate figures

    

Sunset in Dublin 16:11 Friday 1 December 2023 (GMT)

At 209.6 mm our rainfall was not out of line for November, nor was our temperature. We had slightly lower soil temperature and above-average solar radiation. Nothing extraordinary though. 

We've had cold dry weather this week. It feels rather nice -- festive almost. At this time of year, the sun rises about a quarter after 8 and sets about a quarter after 4. That makes for a very short day. It will, of course, continue to get shorter until 21 Dec when it starts going the other way. I love the 22nd Dec!
