.... I was just going to write .... " what, no rain last night? ", then
I looked at the radar sequence, and noted that indeed the rain we got
this end of the county [ 0.6 mm here and Hurn ] was part of a linear
formation (orientated NW/SE) that moved bodily north and developed
slightly - completely missing out west Dorset.

Just goes to show that it's not just 'severe' convection that can't be
predicted to small-scale accuracy (see other threads) - even standard
rain-bands are difficult (and always have been of course!)
