My rainfall total this month so far is 8.4 mm. It looks like being the

Unusually, you seem to have caught more of the showers than I, here at
Boughton-under-Blean.


My monthly total so far is 19.3mm which equals January 2006 as the
driest months since I started recording in September 2004. Nearly half
of that total - 9.4mm - was recorded in one exceptionally heavy shower
on the 27th. We were on the western edge of that shower - it mainly
passed to the east of us, so I guess Boughton-under-Blean wasn't
affected by it at all. I wonder if the rainfall totals further east
would have been higher than here during that shower!
