Up here, Tudor ... it looks as though the narrow band of
heavy rain is pivoting on Luton ... 65RA for over two hours
now, and the A505 main road between Luton and Dunstable
has an impassable flood under the old Dunstable Town railway
bridge; there are several minor floods elsewhere. Negotiating
Bison Hill was a bit like driving up a river. If I've not misread
the Dynes TSR by 5 or 10mm, we've so far had ~22mm and
it's still chucking it.

At 18z there has been 29.6mm so far at Whipsnade. I'll
have a Luton figure later this evening if I can get through
the floods.
