Howling wind, moderate lashing rain, water already flowing off the moor
down the hill, mild at 8.5C, nothing more to say really. Just glad I
invested in some new green walking wellies before the winter!


11:00
Postbridge now gusting 42 knots with heavy rain at 8 mm/h and 8C. This is
going to be a wet one!

Haytor now 10.2mm (AWS). Postbridge 24.2 mm. Gusting 43 knots at
Postbridge. Good F5 here in more sheltered Haytor which is right on the
eastern edge of the heaviest rainfall. Looks particularly wet over the
southern moor with getting on for a couple of inches now I should think up
on Ryders Hill at 500 metres. Temperatures on Dartmoor mostly 8 to 10C.
Getting wet!


15:45
Still raining at around 3 mm/h. Total now 18.2mm (AWS).
Postbridge is 43.8 mm with a F7 SW wind. Southern moor will be up to 75mm
now.
A wet day on Dartmoor and now the dog wants to go out. We love the rain!
