Default [WR] Romsey - burst of heavy rain

"Nigel Paice" wrote in message
...
Sudden rise in wind and pressure at 1940Z
just ahead of an approaching CB (embedded
within thick AC/AS layers). Rain commenced
at 1945Z, quickly intensifying to heavy at 1955Z.

1mm in the gauge already (15mins ending 2000Z).

.... further west of you, we've only had a light 'sprinkling' of rain
~1930-1945Z ; just enough to show on the flags, but evaporating
quickly. Sky has some 'lumpy' elements, mainly floccus, underneath
thinning (at present) Cs deck. No doubt some more action later, though
we may be away from the focus of the heaviest & potentially persistent
rain event.
