Month starts with little rain

Only 30.5mm of rain has fallen in the first two weeks of August, according to figures supplied by Mr Jim Morrison of Woy Woy.

Another 51.2mm is needed in the remainder of the month if average figures are to be achieved.

A shortfall this month would see a three-month run of below average rainfall, with June being 3.3mm below average and July being 29.3mm below.

The greatest shortfall this year has been in April when the figure was 69.9mm less than average.

Temperatures so far this month have ranged from a low of 6.2 degrees on August 8 to a high of 21.9 on August 1, according to figures from www.peninsulaweather.info.

Average maximum was 18.9 and average minimum was 9.2.

The highest minimum was 12.0 degrees on August 11 and the lowest maximum was 15.8 on August 10.

Atmospheric pressure has ranged from a high of 1025 Hpa on August 7 down to 998 Hpa on August 11, the lowest since September last year.

Highest wind gust was 52.9 km/h recorded at 2.55am on August 3, the strongest wind in more than a year.
