Recent Additions to Statistics List
~ Added many graphs to my main data file including Rainfall, Cumulative rainfall & Phenomena (4 graphs & 22 in total).
~ Also added graphs with comparisons to the Long Term Average - included extreme average values as well. Both Min
   & Max graphs were created (where applicable for each parameter) for: Air Temperature, Humidity, Dew-Point, Wind Gust,
   Run & Chill, Grass Temperature, Air Pressure, Heat Index, Cumulative Rain, Total Rainfall, No. Rain days, & Phenomena.
Stevenson Screen in the Barrington Tops
~ Over the last few months my father & I have been building another stevenson screen to be installed at Hunter Springs
