Weather absolutely invariable all day.

Wind very strong today.

Set up the new thermometer on a 4ft. pole in the back garden - first readings tomorrow.

Wind and rain. Cold front passed over about 2.30pm.

Viciously cold all day; school heating had failed and everybody was sent home at 3.15pm. Glad to get home: at least it's warm here.

Rather wet and miserable afternoon.

Quite a cheerful day weather-wise: cold and showery, but the sun managed to break through the clouds about four p.m.
