That's the 100mm rainfall barrier swept aside for the month
already. On top of the 201mm in December and the 274mm
in January, we have received almost three quarters of our
average annual rainfall in little over two months!

Continuous rain during daylight hours gave way to showers
for a time with large Cu visible at sunset lit in a lurid orange.
Rain and drizzle mixed resumed this evening, though with
the odd burst of heavy rain. Hints of the moon from time
to time but it's overcast at the moment.
