Up to 1800 10th my February total stands at 147.1mm .

My "winter" DJF total is now 923.1 mm.

A record metre (1000mm) of rain this winter is now certain, but how much
more than a metre?

I must be the wettest place in England apart from a few higher spots on
Dartmoor?
Cool eh?
No problems with flooding either, free draining soil is still workable
:-)


Yes, it is probably draining down into the Somerset Levels :-(


And ultimately into the sea of course, contributing to sea level rise.


I hope your tongue was in your cheek.
