DearMr Jones,
I am writing on behalf of the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew ("RBG Kew") in response to your request for information dated 15 October 2010. I sincerely apologise for the delay in getting this information to you. I have treated your request in accordance with the Environmental Information Regulations 2004.
You asked for the following information:
“…a copy of all the daily summaries of temperature data (min/max) from this station [the weather station maintained and operated by RBG Kew] that are held electronically”.
I attach a table detailing all of the temperature data from this station held by RBG Kew (which covers the period from 1 August 2007 until 22 November 2010). Two readings are taken each day at 9am, and then 9pm.
