It's going to be an interesting test. Can people still forecast without radar ?
I think the network of official and independent observations is going to come
into its own today.
I notice my site is receiving an unusually large amount of hits ATM. Thank
goodness I put those new batteries in :-)

Still light "horizontal drizzle" here. Rate not recording on AWS though.

Will.

all.

I think it is a Met Office experiment. It's called stealth rain and
falls in such a way as to be invisible to radar. :-)

I have had 11mm in the last 4 hours or so and my WS currently shows 5mm
per hour. On a visual check, this sounds about right.
