Here in the Orkney desert, we've had 30mm of rain in the last 12 hours,
it's still coming down steadily and it seems there's plenty more on the way.
This compares to the total of 12mm for the entire month of June. The
last 12 hours have contributed more than 10% of our total rainfall for
the year so far, currently standing at 287mm.
