Default Record daily rainfall in 100 years - Berkshire, 18 August 2011

Thanks Stephen, that is really most interesting. Yet another example of
extreme rainfall occuring on N or NW flank of a slow moving low in summer
with a warm front or warm occlusion draped around it.
Of course the low temperatures and rain went together after a chilly night
and a cloudy start.
