Over the years we have recorded the weather here at Henden using a Davis Pro weather station. We had a hiatus from 2020 to the start of this year so apologies for the lack of data during that period. Anyway, the data we have is shown below for your interest. While the temperatures for April and May were higher than the 13 year average that we show (0.6 deg C over the three months to May or +6.1%), the key data we have been focused on is rain. We had way above average rainfall in September to November, which helped wash away some of the seeds that we had sown for our winter crops. This can be seen by the bald areas in some of our fields. Then we had a load more rain in January, but since then we have seen much less rain than normal. (For the period March to May we had just 77mm of rain compared with 144mm over the 13 year average, a reduction of 67mm or a drop of 46.5%.) Over the past few days as I write we have had some rain, which has been welcomed Hopefully our winter crops will still yield good results where the crops are evident. Hopefully, too, our Spring crops will do well. As of today they look to be OK, but fingers crossed.
