Default [WR] Dartmoor 30/8/09 (soaking drizzle)

Continuous moderate to heavy horizontal drizzle today above 400m on southern
moor. Visibility circa 100 metres. Bit better lower down with sun shining
through stratus but still with drizzle, sheep were wearing their summer
shades. Temperatures a rather humid 17C. Upland moorland catchments look as
they normally do in November, i.e. wet with water coming over the top of
your boots at times. I hope they freeze in the winter else walking up there
will be like swimming :-)
