Sunniest February Ever

Monday, 4 March 2019 13:45

Last month was the sunniest Jersey February ever.

We enjoyed 162 hours of sunshine - the average is 96.

Despite hitting a record-breaking temperature of 18.3°, it was only the sixth warmest February on record.

The average temperature over the month was 8.6°.

Meanwhile this winter was the seventh warmest on record.

It was duller than usual in December and January - but February's warm spell meant we enjoyed 256 hours of sunshine.
