6 DAYS WITH DOUBLE FIGURE MAXIMUM TEMPERATURES, TOGETHER WITH 40mms OF RAIN, HAVE STARTED TO MAKE IT LOOK LIKE SPRING, BUT CERTAINLY RUNNING LATE..

I PROVIDE DATA FOR AGRICULTURAL PURPOSES IN THE NORTH EAST OF SCOTLAND & FOR THE 1st TIME FOR MANY YEARS, TEMPERATURE FIGURES ARE STILL REQUIRED BY THEM INTO APRIL. THIS IS BECAUSE WINTRY CONDITIONS IN MARCH STOPPED THE PROGRESS IN THE NUMBER OF "GROWING DAYS" FOR CROP PURPOSES & THE IDEAL REQUIREMENT IS STILL TO BE REACHED.
