172 mm so far this year, which while all in a day's work for Capel Curig, is extraordinary for east Scotland. And I'm sure my Davis gauge under-records.

To put it in perspective, I recorded only 547 mm for the whole of 2001.

My village is now cut off. And of course there's been no sunshine either.

56 mm here to midnight just gone, average ~85mm for the month, peanuts
compared to yours but still enough to send the local River Meon to the
brink of flooding roads. The house-less flood plain is doing its job
though, it's flooded.
