For this region. 20.2mm in AWS since 6.30pm makes it second heaviest fall


of the year. And good modelling at 48hrs by GFS that said at least 16mm.


Still light rain falling at 1.38am






Good to get your data Scott, but for some people it will be pretty


meaningless because you do not give your location.






For everybody it's meaningless. What City/Town do you live in or near

to Scott? At the moment it's the counties of Essex, Kent, Sussex,

Surry, or Middlesex. ;-)


I think Scott is in East London.

FWIW, here in Blackheath the rain gauge was about 29mm this morning, and
I see there was a flood alert for the Ravensbourne catchment last night
too.

Is it ever again going to be dry enough to do a bit of gardening without
getting soaked?
