Just back.

No. There have been 2 major weather events here over the last 5 years.
The evening high tide March 2008, and last nights rain, no current
weather warning in place either time (as far as I'm aware.) Strange,
as that intense rain was sitting over the Penwith moors for hours on
end for anyone with access to rainfall radar to see. There was also
some thunder.

Rainfall at St Ives appears to have been similar to Penzance, the
worst stuff in between. I'll try to get figures for Trengwainton, just
north of Penzance.
