Hi Nigel. Torrential rain has now set in at Marlow (Bucks) rain rate
23.00mm an hour, waiting
for thunder this afternoon.
Regards Richard Bailey

Hello Richard,

Any thunder with you yet? Only the single rumble here
about 4 hours ago which brings our yearly total of days
with thunder to 4, still below the long term average to
this point in the year.

This is easily our wettest day of the year so far with more
rain falling in the first 3 hours of my 24 hour measuring
period (0900-0900Z) than in any other *whole* such 24
hour period in 2011.

Nigel
