About these figures
Medium confidence: there is no nearby station record to check against, so the figures rely on a general correction for this kind of area.
Day temperatures from ERA5-Land, adjusted for altitude with a coastal-city correction; rainy days estimated from ERA5-Land (see How we score); sunshine from ERA5 direct sunlight; sea temperature from ERA5 about 55 km offshore. Averages for 2004–2023.
