Default Dawlish Rain Shield massacre.

7mm and rising quickly. That's more than we've had in a day in the
last 30 days and it'll soon be more in a few hours than we have had in
total in the last 30 days. What we have, almost everywhere in England
will get during the day. Moderate, persistent rain, heavy at times.
Windy too; a Force 5/6 SSE blow is driving the rain. Ground soaking
and water-butt filling rain. There'll be a wet dog (and owner) in
about an hour's time! Short walks and work today!
