Default Heavy rain and floods in east Suffolk and east Norfolk

From the radar accumulations - two main areas, one along the coast from
Lowestoft to Gt. Yarmouth, the other just north of Cambridge (dead on the
Greenwich Meridian). Both areas indicated ~32mm of rainfall.

If JimB or any of his WeatherQuest colleagues are reading this,
one or two rainfall stats would be interesting and useful, especially
now that there's nothing closer in the synoptic network than
Wattisham, Marham and the not-entirely-reliable Weybourne.

I've heard an unconfirmed 38mm at North Walsham, but
without any information about the period it was recorded in.
The pictures of flooding in Gt Yarmouth on News24 suggest
something appreciably in excess of that.
