Default Heavy Rain Leeds unforecast

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 have been less than impressed with the forecasts over the
Bank Holiday weekend. We've had the rain alright, just never
in the manner in which it was forecast.
Take today for example, although it's a beautiful evening now,
the rain continued well into the afternoon when it was supossed
to clear by mid-morning at the latest.
