4mm here in Dawlish in one shower that lasted about 15 minutes.
Heaviest rain for a month. Coo! I won't have to water the veg tonight.
The Dawlish Rain Shield actually operated quite well, there looks to
have been a lot more rain just to our north, but with luck, it will be
breached completely on Sunday. *))


Yesterday we appeared to have had a shield Scotty would be proud of -
shower clouds all around for most of the day, but very little rain
actually got through.

Sunday should be the day Paul. I'm expecting full water butts at the
end of the day!
