last night's rain (South Essex totals please)
I'm not sure how localised the rain was last night - but it was raining
cats and dogs for hours at Romford Stadium dog track last night. The sand track resembled a quagmire at times and one poor greyhound in the first race broke its hind leg. Whether this was anything to do with the conditions is not known. On waking up near West Horndon this morning I was struck by how much less it seemed to have rained. Was the heavy rain in Romford very localised? Incidentally due to the weather many (though not all) races were won by dogs in the outside "5" and "6" traps - |

Incidentally due to the weather many (though not all) races were won by dogs in the outside "5" and "6" traps - 8.2mm for me at Southend-on-Sea (0.32"). Monthly total now stands at 61.0mm (2.40") 146% 1970-2000 average. 6th wettest may since 1977. Wettest May 2000 100.2mm -- Keith (Southend) http://www.southendweather.net |

Hi Scott,
well I was away on the South coast but on returning I had recorded 7mm here, which I consider to be substantial for here, and as you know only about three miles from West Horndon.
