11TH JULY
Experimented today re-siting the 'Stevenson' to possibly the the only other location that I can. However, it was immediately obvious that the temperature over-read under sunny skies was even worse, being some 2.5°C, possibly nearer 3°C, which I just cannot entertain. So, for the time being, I have put the 'Stevenson back to its original location and think again.
26TH JUNE
My move is now completed. I am no longer based in Park Farm and am now in Orton Malborne, which is about 3miles West of Park Farm.
My 'Stevenson' is not ideally sited and is over-reading by 1.5°C to 2.0°C under sunny skies, particularly between 10:00 & 14:00.. My rain gauge is now mounted on top of the Stevenson. Again, not the ideal position as it really should be at ground level and it is also in a rain shadow, so am likely to under read rainfall, particularly when rain is coming from the S/W/N. Unfortunately I cannot site my anemometer, so there is no wind data.

* Current Conditions may reflect 'Dry'/'Stopped Raining' when it is obviously raining. Unless rainfall is moderate/heavy during any rainfall, it can take a while for even as little as 0.1mm to be recorded, hence, the perceived 'incorrect' description of 'Dry'/'Stopped Raining'
