Bingley:





The site where I get the raw data from is down at the moment, but from what I can remember the temps were about 0.2C below average, rainfall about 35 percent above despite the dry spell in the middle and sunshine was close to normal at around 100 hours.


Snowfall was 17 cm which made up for a poor winter snow-wise, even if both the snowfalls we had melted more or less as soon as it stopped falling.
