Unsettled air continued to produce storms and showers throughout Finland up until today. Jyväskylä has also continued to escape mostly unscathed. Including today, the past 5 days have seen falls at the Airport but the total for that period hasn't topped 10mm.
Tomorrow should see a brief return to temperatures above 20C, but the remainder of the week will fail to reach that high. Saturday's current forecast is for a maximum of only 16C. Rain might also be around later in the week.

Rain and wet conditions have continued in Sydney. Today made it 7 consecutive days of rain recorded. A total of 7.6mm fell throughout the day taking the monthly total to 104.4mm. This is already getting close to the long term average for June of 122.9mm.
The morning of June 9 finally saw the temperature dip below 10C for the first time this year at the Airport. It dropped to a low of 8.0C around 7am. It was also the first time below 10C since October 15 last year.
As I have mentioned earlier, 2014 has broken the record for the latest date in the year for the first minimum below 10C. Since 1939, there has been no other year that you have to go as deep as June to find the first minimum below 10C. The previous record was May 29 in 2003.
As for Observatory Hill, it also dropped below 10C yesterday for the first time this year. Temperature records there date back to 1859. 2014 ended up equalling the previous record of June 9 from 1988. Every other year since 1859 had a date before the month of June.
These records stand in line with figures that suggest daily minimums are continuing to climb in Sydney.
