Default [WR] Persistent thick drizzle Coventry and environs

Not showing much on the rainfall radar, we have been affected by
persistent drizzly rain for much of the day, keeping everything
thoroughly wet and miserable but probably not adding much more than 1
or 2 mm to the rainfall figures. This drizzle seems to be coming up
the Gloucestershire Gap (as distinct from the Cheshire Gap).


Actually Martin, the drizzle/rain wasn't as innocuous as it looked
because in all it dumped 11mm on Coventry, 7mm of it after 0800hr.

I can personally vouch for its ability to soak anyone out in it however!
