Radar at 1930 GMT had zero rainfall rate over us (as far as I can tell
squinting at the Met Office maps). Actual ground truth was 1.5 mm/h

It has been continuous moderate rain now for over 3 hours (occasionally
heavy).

Yes it shows zero rainfall in Fleet, Hampshire too, but I've just been out
for a run and it rained from start to finish. Only light rain though.

Got a nice view of about 1,000 fireworks displays from the top of Firs Hill,
I could see every display in Fleet, Farnborough and Camberley
simultaneously. Quite a sight.



And they are still going! Suprised its not foggy now.
