June 2011 - Southend-on-Sea.

Rain 114.8 mm (228%)

How localised is this, given that a lot of southern England seems to
have had below average rainfall again?

Not very localised, if my figures are anything to go by. The rainfall
here was 97.7 mm, nearly twice normal. There was 38.8 mm on the 5th
alone, which was more than the total for previous 3 months. Even
without that fall it would still have been a wet month. It was the
wettest June since 1998.
