Breaks between the cold lows provided a few warm days, however the tempre- ture never climbed above 30 degrees Celcius, which is another record. Slightly above normal amounts of cloud cover allow- ed the area only 219.8 hours of sunshine, not a new record but still below the normal of 293.8 hours. The mean maximum temperature was well below the normal; the mean mini- mum was about normal, giving a mean tempreature of 1 degree Celcius below the monthly normal. With a record number of days with precipitation the district received only 67.2 mm of rain, 9.7 mm above normal, but well below the 104.7 mm measured in 1978. Wind averages were be- low normal with the prevail- ing direction out of the South.
