"D Speakman" wrote Hello from Leeds again.

Rain this afternoon was light but now in heavy pulses. It was supposed
to be
drying out this morning (according to last night's forecast, now
changed!)
as the front moved east. Instead a trough has appeared on the latest
chart
(from Wetterzentrale) running down central Britain in a line north
south.

Any interesting developments along this trough?

I can see the development on the radar over the past few hours. It was
forecast to dry up here this afternoon. Instead, an increasingly heavy
drizzle has set in. We don't often see that down here - my 85 year old
mum in Durham always calls it "the sort of rain that really wets you".

Well, we always know what she means.
