Weather Statistics for Symi, Dodecanese, for December 2008
With so many enquiries regarding the weather on Symi at different times of the year I have installed a weather station at my farm which is located at the top edge of the Pedi Valley, about half way up the Vigla. It is quite a sheltered location so the wind strength readings are fairly conservative. If you would like to receive these graphs in a higher resolution than shown or any other information on the subject, please email me. I will put up the figures each month for the month preceding and hopefully we will be able to come up with a more accurate picture than the one currently based on the airport at Rhodes.
Outdoor temperatures recorded at my farm in the Pedi valley, Symi for the period 1 December 2008 to 1 December 2009. The red line is the outdoor temperatures and the green shows the dew point.
Barometric Pressure for the same period recorded at my farm on Symi.
Rainfall for the period 1 December 2008 to 1 January 2009 as recorded at my farm in the Pedi Valley, Symi. The software only allows for a maximum of 100 mm rainfall per month. We actually received 118 mm of rain in December which is why it has gone off the top of the chart!
Wind speed at the same location. Gusts are shown in green and wind strength in red.

I can't read the scales on any of the graphs, but the 'onwards and upwards' progress of the rainfall graph looks rather alarming! At what point (either through choice or by necessity) will your farm be converted into a reservoir or swimming pool?
