The Met Office has revealed that the entire north of Scotland reported an increase in sunshine hours during the meteorological winter, which runs from December 1 to February 29.
The UK average was 145.6 hours of sunshine during the period, while Moray recorded 216.6 hours.
Since records began in 1910, this has only been beaten by 222.9 hours in Moray in 2018 and 235 in 1930 respectively.
We have a special kind of sun though. It's one that produces huge amounts of light without the enormous drag factor of having to produce heat. Still, I'll take that. Look at over Fort William way. Christ it's dark. And cold. And wet. And miserable <shudder>

Re: Things that make you go oooh thread....
That reckons where I live has had between 140 and 160 sunshine hours but I can't remember any of them. It seems to me to have been the wettest, greyest, most sunless winter I can ever remember.
