1400 GMT Rainfall Radar (Avbrief): the light rain indicated on the
Eastern banks of Southampton Water (where I am) and just into Fareham
Gosport and the middle Solent hasn't been reaching the ground so far
here... upto 1420 GMT.

The rain never did reach the ground and now, the 'danger' seems to
have passed. Weak sunshine now, looks like a dry day here, in spite of
the radar.

Well it reached Waterlooville - about 30 mins steady rain at 1630

It never did rain here - on Saturday when I originally posted.

It rained here on Sunday around 1600, a mm or two then another 3.2mm
early this morning.

That was under a low over Britain? Do you think that's unusual?
