Haven't seen the sun since the early morning of the 9th though.

Well, living up to its reputation today !

Now been raining continuously since 1600 on the 9th (mostly moderate after 1800
local and occasionally heavy 1.0 - 5.0 mm/h). Rainfall total at 1000 10/10/04
since 1600 9th is 16.1 mm (AWS).

A mere splash by Haytor standards but with more to come it could turn a bit more
interesting. Pity it's washed out our sunday though, but at least we are not in
fog and I can get on with some inside stuff :-)
Temperature is still just 6.8 deg C, if only it was January ! Yes I know, a £10
fine :-)

Monthly rain now 94.4 mm (AWS). Estimated 1971-2000 October average is 175mm.

More totals later.

Will.
