Climatological Data for the Area

I thought that January 2013 was cold but on looking through Rev C Mather’s ‘Notes on Needham’ I came across the following weather data.  It seems that -12.6ºC was relatively mild!  However, I think that the maximum temperature in 2013 will have beaten that of 1948.


  • Maximum Wind Gust:   98mph recorded on 16.03.1947
  • Highest Recorded Temperature:   34ºC  (93.2ºF) on 28.07.1948
  • Lowest Recorded Temperature:  -15.4ºC (4.28ºF) on 23.01.1963
  • Ground Frost: -19ºC (2,2ºF) on 17.01.1940 &    02.02.1956
