Default Exeter - wettest June for at least 41 years

Another dollop of heavy rain yesterday evening and overnight has allowed my
total for the month so far to soar ahead of 2009 (130.4mm) which was the
previous wettest June in local records going back to 1971. Total now stands
at 144.6 mm, but not for long looking at the radar picture!

Hi Peter, big raindrops falling yet again here in Haytor. And it is so
GLOOMY, house lights are on, it could easily be November, even the
temperature is just +12.1C at 1045.

Although veg. aren't growing, it so lush, grass is rampant and huge leafy
growth everywhere. Fortuantely being cool the slugs and snails are not in
evidence. Also my hostas are looking magnificent as they love this weather!
