Ray Sanders has more detail on Cavendish On Tallbloke. Apparently it is not the first time Cavendish has topped the charts, even though nearby stations were a couple of degrees lower.
See Tallbloke’s post here.
One thing Ray highlighted that the temperature at Cavendish miraculously rose by 0.9C in the space of four minutes on one day in June last year, when (surprise, surprise!) it topped the charts again:
Ray also has told me that a combine harvester was working in the field yesterday just yards away from the thermometer, which is in a private back garden, according to a friend who lives nearby.
The site is classified as Class 4, presumably because of its proximity to heat trapping hedges.
Just to complete the story, Andrewsfield is a Class 2 station, just 13 miles away from Cavendish.
Temperatures there reached 23C at 5pm – it may have gone up slightly before 6pm, but it is unlikely to have got anywhere near Cavendish’s 24.7C.
