There was a drop in my "proper" rain guage but not measurable, and
the tipping bucket guage didn't tip so I've had to record it as
"trace".

Trace of rain here in Haytor too - just 4.6mm, (which for Dartmoor is a
trace :-) ).

Last time I had that much of a deluge was 3rd April so by the weekend,
I may be looking up the definition of "drought"!


Drought? Less than 50mm in a month (we are heading that way at the moment).
Driest month on average at Haytor is May with 86mm.
