This is the blog section of my website. Here I will publish analyses of the data produced by my weather station, along with thoughts on meteorology and the world in general. I also hope to document the process involved in setting up and running the weather station in the hope that this will be helpful to others, and may inspire them to run their own.
The UK has an obsession with the weather. Along with fish and chips, tea and football, that is one of the biggest cliches about our country. As with so many cliches, however, there is a grain of truth hiding amongst the mythology: in a country where the weather is quite capable of changing from blinding sun to pouring rain, hail and snow in the space of an hour or less, it is hardly surprising that the subject frequently makes an appearance in conversation.
