March Weather

At the risk of being off topic...

As the weather is relevent to astronomy and there are quite a few of us with weather stations, I thought it might be interesting to compare weather data from different locations. Mainly just for interest's sake, but you never know, over a long time (if we keep it up) we could end up with data that might affect someone's decision to relocate for astro reasons.

So I thought I'd kick off with a summary of the weather for March 2010 here in Oberon (Pocklebonk Walls actually) taken straight out of Cumulus (pasted below). To get this report from Cumulus: View, This Month then select the appropriate month and Update Display. Then Copy to Clipboard and paste in your post.

Feel free to add an equivalent summary for you location or compare weather.
