Data: ERA5 reanalysis via Open-Meteo, taken at the nearest model grid point to the postcode — not a Met Office station record. Baselines are the mean of the same calendar months over the previous 10 years at this location. Whether conditions meet a contractual test (e.g. JCT “exceptionally adverse weather” or an NEC 1-in-10-year event) is a matter for the contract — this is a factual weather record, not advice.
