Windy last night, with gusts widely to 40mph in the far SW. Also mild,

14.2mm of rain overnight, but it cleared eastwards around 08:00 with
the cloud already starting to break. The overnight force 5-6 SE has
now become a Force 2-3 S just behind the front.

I see there's a heavy rain weather warning for Cornwall & the Isles of
Scilly from 10:00-15:00. It's been & gone here, and will have cleared
most of Cornwall by 10:00. Heavy rain here was 04:00-07:00.

The warning was issued at 08:00 - shouldn't it be issue before rather
than after the event?

Flooding in this part of Cornwall, a combination of high tide and drains
blocked by fallen leaves. Whatever caused it, the result was chaos on the
local roads as many drivers tried to find an alternative route.
