BRACKNELL (TAWFIELD)
0900 SSW F1 2000 +RA BR 3/ST 8/NS T186D176
RMK: 3St~006, 8Ns~020. Everything 'steaming' nicely, as the humidity
increases due to the intense rainfall. State of ground wet!
[ OVERNIGHT DATA (18Z - 09Z):
screen min: 17.1 grass min: 14.9 precipitation: 8.6 [24hr total: 08.6
mm]
other data:
slight, temporarily moderate, thunderstorm (judging by intensity of
discharges) between 0518Z (first thunder heard) & 0645Z (10 mins after
last thunder heard), accompanied by slight-to-moderate rainfall.
Discharge activity seemed to be medium level, no Cb detected, though
suspect it had a high-base buried in the thick/extensive Sc/Ac sheet. As
rain set in, it became very misty, 3000M for a time, as dew point rose
and wind fell away [true dead-calm for some time].]=
