Weymouth experiences average July weather
3:00pm Tuesday 23rd August 2011 in News
WEYMOUTH experienced an ‘average’ July for weather with a mixture of sun and rain.
Bob Poots, Weymouth weather man, said the first few dry days of the month were followed by three days of showers, then dry again until the third week when rainfall was recorded every day.
The final nine days of July were dry, although there was still less sun in the last fortnight than normally expected.
Rainfall was slightly below the 30-year average for July, with the highest rainfall of 11.6mm on Tuesday, July 5.
Dorchester experienced a cool July with a near average rainfall.
John Oliver, Dorchester weather man, said the mean maximum temperature of 20.48C was 1.3C below normal.
A peak temperature of 24.6C was noted on July 25 which was the lowest extreme maximum since 22.2C in 2007.

I made a cup of tea. It wasn't bad but it also wasn't the best cuppa I've ever had.
