Struggling here in Southend-on-Sea, spit and spots so far and only
1.2mm recorded, this ain't doing anything for the drought !
Maybe it just hasn't got here yet?

.... still a way to go with this one: our PPN is easing up now - but I
fancy it's got a good number of hours for your part of the country. Not
sure you'll see quite as much as us, but they way the upper pattern is
distorting etc., suggests that you should get at least 10 mm before it's
all over - any more will depend on these fingers of embedded convection
and whether they pivot over your location or not - wouldn't like to be
too categoric about those!
