Last year was one of the sunniest on record in Jersey.
We enjoyed the 4th most hours of sunshine in nearly a century.
Data from Jersey Met for 2019 shows the sun shone for a total of 2,298 hours last year.
That is 300 hours more than the 30 year average - or the equivalent of 12.5 days extra of non-stop sunlight.
However, we had a lot of liquid sunshine too.
It was the 8th wettest year on record thanks those soakings in October and November. Total rainfall was 1062 millimetres.
It was also the eighth warmest year, with the hottest day on 23rd July when it reached 35.7°Celsius - the second-highest temperature ever recorded in Jersey.
