UK rainfall totals in 24 hours to 18.00 UTC on Friday

Stornoway 1 mm, Leconfield and Portland 2 mm, Boulmer, Plymouth
(Mountbatten) and St Catherine’s Point 3 mm, Culdrose 7 mm, Jersey
Airport and Guernsey Airport 12 mm, St Mary’s (Scilly) 34 mm.


I suspect that the places with the three biggest totals recorded most of
it as rain, and that the smallness of the others illustrates the
difficulty of getting meaningful precipitation amounts when there has
been snow.
