Just after 09z today the AWS gave us 0.4mm. Another 0.2mm around
11z, but since then 11.6mm and still going on. So Bill has partly
redeemed himself. Gusty too in the showers. Atm just drizzle.



.... total rainfall 09-18Z here ~3mm, with ir(slight) this morning,
becoming continuous PPN this afternoon, mostly drizzle & rain, light
to moderate, but very short-lived bursts of moderate rain.

I think the inner cold front has just gone through; after a couple of
hours of poor visibility, it's just shot up and the wind's veered a
shade. Presumably we'll have to wait for the 'wrap-around' occlusion,
or seclusion (?) to come through before the humidity falls properly -
then wait for the next system!
