    What is the sunniest January on record?  I ask because the remainder of lanuary is looking sunnier than average and last week was very sunny, so I am guessing hours of Jan 2024: sunshine is running quite high right now.

    Sunniest in Coventry was 93.9 hours in 2001so most unlikely a record sunny January this year (Bablake currently on 54.5).

    Well for reference those wind gusts are usually the max you get on the coasts and hills in most deep lows in the winter period when inland areas get anywhere from 30-50mph gusts so if those gusts come off it will be quite an experience for us inlanders.

    I am inland and near the Teifi valley not so far from you, my anemometer has not worked for a couple of years now and is in the roof, highest gusts most years around 60mph, nothing above 65mph, therefore I would rate 70mph as exceptional for here.

    I guess there is a bit of IMBY in people perception... from my point of view then, at no point so far in January has it been cold enough here to snow. We had showers everyday last week (rain) up to yesterday and then today where its been drizzly..

    15 miles inland from you we have had a decent cold spell this past week, a 3cm covering of white stuff (hail not snow) remained for 5 days only now on the thaw, some hard frosts as low as -7.6c, maxima  under 5c.
