A cold, damp long weekend usually is one met with dread; however, the Man in the Corner did not hear a single person complaining about the consistent rainfall.

Before the rain, Horsham woke up to frosty mornings, with a lowlight of -3.5°C in Horsham on May 5.
Early birds can take solace in knowing it was not as cold as it had ever been, with that record belonging to June 15, 2006, at -6°C.
