Irritating, Ogimet seems to have given up on my location. I can use Tutiempo but they only upload the stats at the end of each month.

London won't break the record for the sunniest May (needs 16 hours of sun today, which is impossible), but it looks good to pass 304 hours and ensure 2020 overtakes 1990 as the sunniest spring.

Two stations reached 30'C in Sweden today, Delsbo at 30.4'C and Torpshammar at 30.1'C in southern North Sweden. Umeå airport still down, but the uni station recorded 25.3'C and Örnsköldsvik Airport 24.5'C, and traffic agency stations recorded 27.0'C just a dozen kilometers from the city center.

I predict that June will break no sunshine records.

I predict that June will break no sunshine records. I predict that June will end up with somewhere between 180-210 sun hours.

Was talking to JG about the recent cool Januaries so I decided to write up each year's max/min for January and got an interesting pattern. Perth doesn't tend to have average - below average - above average but instead have extended periods of warm januaries flanked by cool januaries.
2005-2007: all below average 2008-2016: all above average 2017-2020: all below average
Averages for Perth: 31.2C/18.1C
Below 2005: 30.0C/16.8C 2006: 28.8C/17.0C 2007: 29.1C/16.6C
Long late 00s and 10s heat 2008: 32.8C/18.9C 2009: 32.5C/18.8C 2010: 33.4C/18.9C 2011: 32.5C/19.5C 2012: 33.5C/20.1C 2013: 31.7C/19.3C 2014: 32.2C/19.0C 2015: 33.0C/18.2C 2016: 32.0C/19.3C
All below 2017: 31.0C/16.8C 2018: 30.8C/18.1C 2019: 30.5C/16.6C 2020: 30.5C/17.4C
I'll do this for a couple more months, particularly summer months and check for any patterns

My old apartment was in the western, more inland part of town, down in a depression and a creek. My thermometer would consistently be many degrees cooler at night than the uni rooftop station. Now I live right next to the hospital, so like 50m away from me, there's a 20m drop in elevation, and it's also pretty much right on the edge of the city center core. At night, it often gets noticably cooler when I grab the bike down to the lower elevation city centre, and though I haven't lived here for more than a couple of days really, at least last evening, that same thermometer was a degree or two warmer than the Uni station.

Maybe, but I've never said RH is better than DP. The thing is that I have to rely on RH for statistics, because the FMI does not publish historical DP data easily available. For example if I would want to know what's the all-time highest DP in July in history of Turku, I would have to manually go trough day by day, hour by hour, minute by minute.
I don't really understand how to read that tweet either.

not sure what's confusing about that tweet; if you have downloadable station data, I could calculate the dewpoint for you. It's a complicated formula, but once you type it out, not hard.

Ok, so the RH was higher this morning than yesterday, but the DP was lower this morning than yesterday? Ok, so that means the temperature yesterday morning was higher? Well what does he want with this brilliant revelation? A nobel prize?
I can get DP data only every 10 minutes on a certain day.
