Final table
Cornwall had a May 2020.
South West England and other Western areas did really well for sun.
South East ended mostly decent but not so much for the East.
Yorkshire didn't fare so well!
Probably be a similar chart for June too since the "West is best" pattern is looking to carry on for a bit longer at least.
Also to note, I don't think Herstmonceux is a great representation of East Sussex since Eastbourne, who don't do daily sunshine totals apparently, always come out as one of the sunniest places.
Also, was West Yorkshire really that dull??
Er, yes it was. And still is.

Seriously who can complain about this weather. It is perfect - crisp blue skies, the temp is just right, gentle breeze no wind. You won't get a better synoptic pattern than this putting aside extremes. And May would be the perfect time of year for a pattern like this too.
Who can complain? People who have had the exact opposite for many days on end now.

I see the met office has pushed back the clearing of the clag here until after lunchtime. It's still tupperware grey although it is getting a tad brighter. One can only hope but it just goes to show how desperate things are when we wait with baited breath for less than half a days sun.

Reading this thread and the writing off of May by some for any warmth - which seems to need to equate to 25 degrees.. you'd be mistaken it was the end of May, not the 12th. Give it time before calling off the month.
But today I've not had even half of that. Even 15c would be nice.

Yesterday was bad enough but today has been worse with the temp fluctuating between 9 & 10c on the car display during the drive home from work. Endless grey skies & and the wind is gusty & cold. Nothing growing in my greenhouse for weeks on end and now only 6 weeks or less till the nights start drawing in. They're right about a climate emergency but for the wrong reasons. Nothing can really make up for this crap. Roll on spring 24.

Just now, I remember Atlantic 252 said:
dying convection, happens with high pressure, clear early mornings too before cumulus forms
I see, thankyou.

As the sun begins to set the sky begins to clear. What causes this please?
-
Early clear skies have now given way to the inevitable cloud fest despite a promising forecast of morning sun. 9.4c in a still brisk northerly. Looks like another woolly hat day.

Sunny early on soon giving way to cloud & a few spots of rain. 12.3c & feeling distinctly cold in the brisk northerly.

Wow, had a couple of July days here that failed to reach the teens.
