Watford Weather – September 2016

September 2016 was a remarkable month not only in Watford but across the UK. It was the equal 2nd warmest September since records began in 1910. For the CET area which is the worlds longest weather series going back to 1675 it was the 5th warmest. The final figure came out at 16.03c an anormally of 2.4c above average.

In Watford the highest temperature I recorded was 31.4c on the 13th with the coldest day on the 18th 16.7c. There were some remarkable rainy days in which i recorded my highest daily rainfall in the 30+ years of recording weather stats. On the 13th 105.3mm fell in a 24 hour period in thunderstorms. Full stats for the month are listed below.

October weather has been a complete opposite to the previous month with much cooler weather but dry and mostly sunny with high pressure. More about this at the end of the month.

December Events 2023

The last month of the year is upon us; I hope you have had a good year. I certainly have, with lots of projects bearing fruit and with lots more planned for 2024. It was the first year I shot over 110,000 photos and attended plenty of events that I still think I have been lucky to attend.

November Events 2023

As the chill in the air deepens and the nights embrace us earlier each day, this is the time of the year when the skies burst alive with the dance of fireworks and our streets become a canvas of twinkling Christmas lights, there are plenty of lights switching on this month. from Oxford Street to Watford Town. Which are all great to photograph.

October Events 2023

October has arrived, and after a record-warm September, will the month continue in the same way? There are lots of events listed below, some of which I will be covering at various press photocalls. Look out for an article later this month on how to get into these events. My annual calendars are nearly ready to be sent to the printers; they will be added to my website in the 2nd half of the month. There will be four calendars: Watford, Fashion, London and my favourite photos from the last 12 months.
