Incredible June weather. Water is pouring off the moor in torrents. Reports
of trees down in a powerful and gusty WSW wind.


24 hour rain until 1700 GMT today was 54.0mm bringing the monthly total up
to 107.9mm.


At least the fog has now gone! :-)
My veg. are getting battered now though and just holding on :-(

48.6mm already this month for me at Southend (116%). Get a feeling
this summer is going to See Saw, so the 2nd half of June will be hot,
then July and August go through similar extremes.

Can't say I get any feeling about it Keith. A bit of this and a bit of
that. And then maybe a bit of the other.

Oh and Will, only 17 mm here on the coast. Your figure of 54 mm is
remarkable, probably only partly due to orographic enhancement.
N'est ce pas ?
