A month of two distinct parts, a benign, often fine and dry first 22 days, then a switch to unsettled and very wet conditions, with 92.4mm falling from 23^rd

Cool, rather wet and very dull

Mean temperature 9.1c (-1.6c wrt 2006-19) = coolest October recorded here (began 2006) previous coolest 2012 at 9.2c.

Mean max 13.0c (-1.6c) = equal coolest with 2012.

Mean min 5.2c (-1.6c)= second coolest recorded (5.1c in both 2015 and 2018).

Total rainfall 179.1mm this being 125% of the historical 1916-50 Lampeter average and 129% of the 2006-19 mean here.

Total estimated sunshine 56 hours (64%) = dullest October estimated here (began 2013); previously estimated 64 hours in 2013 and 2017.

1^st rather warm, min 13.2c max 19.3c both being the highest of the month, some showers

2^nd – 12^th unsettled with spells of rain or showers, heavy at times; cool to average temperatures, maxima 13 -16c; rather cloudy with some sunny intervals and rather windy at times

13^th - 16^th drier interlude, mostly cloudy with a few showers, still rather cool

17^th -19^th rather cool and unsettled with plentiful showers, very heavy and prolonged at times; thunder likely 17^th when sferics as close as 6 miles south but we were away, it is also possible there was hail showers but these not witnessed; brief sunny intervals and rather windy

20^th – 24^th mostly dry with sunny intervals; around average temperatures, some night frosts, with min -0.3c 22^nd the first air frost of the Season; some mist and fog too

25^th/ 26^th very wet; notable rain event of 65.4mm in 36 hours, 60.6mm of this falling within the rainfall day 25^th (24 hours to 0900GMT) made it the second wettest day of any month recorded here (80.6mm 12/10/18). The system bringing the rain contained mild, humid air 25^th but with a significant drop to day max 7.1c 26^th in its wake – easily the lowest reading of the Season to date; notable that this was a short very wet interruption to an otherwise largely dry final third to October. Significant that the two wettest days recorded here have occurred in the last two Octobers.

27^th – 31^st mostly dry and rather cool with some overnight frosts; min -3.2c 28^th lowest of the month; mainly cloudy after a bright 27^th.
