Jersey's Sunniest Autumn On Record

We've had the sunniest Autumn since records began in 1925.

Jersey enjoyed 556 hours of sunshine, with an average temperature of 13.5°C.

There was only 172mm of rain through September, October and November - making it the driest autumn in seven years.

The 30 year average for rain is 273.6mm.

It's prompted Jersey Water to prepare turning on its desalination plant.

November is the seventh consecutive month for below-average rainfall with just 77.4mm.

It's the driest November since 2011.
