We had problems with the equipment at the UW weather station during the month of May. As a result this summary is based on readings from the Environment Canada weather station at the Waterloo-Wellington Airport.
University of Waterloo Weather Station Summary - May 2010
A warm May with average precipitation
It was the warmest May since 1999 with an overall temperature about one and half degrees above average. A cold snap from May 6th to 13th was offset by a very warm end to month where we saw temperature that were more summer-like.
This makes 7 months in a row that the temperature was above average.
The 67 mm of precipitation was a little less than the 75.7 mm average, but this is still within the average range. About 25 mm came down on the very wet May 7th.

Average Daily Low Temperature 7.8 °C (Long term average 6.6 °C)
Total Precipitation 67.3 mm (Long term average 75.7 mm)
(Long term averages based on 1971-2000 data for the Waterloo Wellington Airport)

Is there a reason the Incoming Shortwave Radiation, and in turn, the Reflected Shortwave Radiation, are published as multiples of ~6.424...? Just saw the numerical pattern and wondered if this was normal or an anomaly? Thanks. PCK (Kitchener)
