Amazingly I went to Ipswich this morning and there was only a patchy half cm at best

It seems that Met Office call Wattisham 8 miles away and approx 300 ft higher - Ipswich. Ipswich had had mostly rain yesterday. Wattisham reported 9cm at 0900.




I suppose if you are in Exeter, Wattisham is Ipswich.

Didn't there used to be a Weather Centre in Norwich? I doubt they would have made that mistake.

But, the accountants saw to that.
