My (now hopefully fixed) raingauge is reporting 59.1mm of rain in the
last 24 hours (to 3pm Tuesday). That's the highest 24 hour total I've
ever recorded, going back over 5 years into my manual days.

Today (since midnight) already we're at 38.4mm.

I have recorded 68mm since 6pm yesterday evening (when this rain
started). I thought the rain had stopped but it has just started again
so it may be a little more when I get to the 24 hour point.


Hasn't stopped here, although not heavy now. Don't have a rain gauge
but the Dee is still rising slowly and there's an occasional small
fountain from the culvert cover at the bottom of the drive.


As Jon would say.
Good job there was a warning out!

Will.
