November 2023 was another wet month in Southern England, and as we have come to expect, warmer than the 1981-2010 local average. However the final few days brought below average temperatures with light snow on the 30th which is very unusual here.
We also set our low pressure station record of 954.3 hPa on the 2nd as #StormCiarán passed through, one of 3 named storms affecting W. Europe during the month.
