Around 31mm fell here between 1430 and 1645bst.

12mm fell in 10 minutes early on, hard to tell the timings after
that as the rainguage got blocked (again!).
Coming home from Bournemouth Airport arin d 1540 or so and the
Wessex Way was an inch deep most of the way between Cooper Dean and
Springbourne where I exit.

.... quite a gradient of rainfall then over ~10 km; 31 mm with you,
Hurn reported 7 mm on the 18Z SYNOP, and we had just 3.6 mm.
