Default Heavy rain on the way for SE Dartmoor and other parts of Devon
Felly sgrifennodd Will Hand :
In the end Jon, just 3.0 mm which is just a "spit in the wind" for these parts.
Ah well I'm not bothered, don't really need it anyway.

Does mains water get up to your house then Will? It doesn't get to ours,
and we're really struggling now. The 21.3mm we've had this month has, I
guess, just been absorbed by the dry surface layer.

We really need a good downpour, ideally a very wet week or so, to recover
our spring, I think. I don't see anything like that on the horizon for us.
Can you offer any hope?
