Still no measurable rain in Penzance since the 1st. A few spots today but absolutely nothing in the gauge.

We returned this morning from our trip to Canada to find that only 8.6mm
were recorded since the 1st compared to the twelve year average for
September of 181.6mm.

That is quite astonishing but we've kept an eye on the local weather and
it seems to be valid.

If anyone can confirm or otherwise, I'd be grateful.

Welcome back Alan, you're still living in the UK I see!

8.6mm looks perfectly reasonable to me, see http://www.met.reading.ac.uk/~brugge/sumr.jpg
