Wow George, that's a lot of rain. Typically, our storm gave only 3mm this
afternoon. Hopefully some more later.

Most notable convective downpour here since June 1993 but well short of the
59mm from one storm in July 1987. Large raindrops as well (high
electrostatic charge?).
Oh yes..I'd just arrived home with a new water butt so I left it out to fill
as I fled the cold downpour. (Bought the water butt from local builder's
merchants having given up on Three Valleys and their offer)

All the best
