Quite persistent rain for a change in the SE today, looking at the
radar I think it's more over Essex than Kent. 2.6mm so far.

14.3mm in Fleet so far and still p*ssing down. *Lots of standing water.

Seems to have been much worse in the central south (I'm in
Southampton) than the southeast. Mostly light but seemed almost
torrential for a short while around 6.30pm. I have to admit I'm amazed
at how active this system, which just seemed to be a minor trough on
the south side of the high, has been. I genuinely expected no more
than occasional drizzle today - and I think that's what the forecast
said, away from the far SE.
