Warren,

I'm 15 miles South of Exeter, and as per my post in a previous thread,
I an confirm there has been no rain this April in Teignmouth, and
there does not look like being any until at least Wed 25th April.

Last recordable rainfall here in the Otter Valley was the 22nd of March. But
the last substantial rainfall, i.e., greater than 5 mm was on the 6th of
March.

I have never known the grass to turn brown in April but it is now!

Currently at 21:20, 10.7C, RH 60%, DP 3.3C, 1019.6 mb (S), Wind calm NNW,
12.4 hours of bright sunshine today.

Bit wetter in Haytor and grass is green and growing quickly. Soil dry on top but
moist underneath.
Just 1.1 mm rain in April.
Last larger amount of "rain" was on 29th March when we collected 6.8 mm but that
was from hail, sleet and snow showers!

Different world on Dartmoor just southwest of Exeter.

2150 Temp. 8.8C.

Not one drop of rain, recordable or otherwise, in Blackpool since March.

We had some rain here in Plympton, Plymouth last Saturday Night making it
quite sticky in the warm sunshine on Sunday.

On Monday although dry in Exeter and most of the Journey home I passed
through a shower which just was enough to wet the A38 between South Brent
and Ivybridge.

It was dry at home in Plympton though.

However this is the only rain I have seen since mid March. It was almost
like someone through a switch from the constant rain of the Winter once we
reached the Equinox.

It has also meant that I have not needed to cut the grass which is a normal
occurance here even throughout the Winter if there is a dry couple of days
to allow me to do it. The little growth from the grass is being kept under
control by moving the Guinea Pigs round the garden.

This seems unusually widespread, especially for the time of year. None here
since March 30th and only 8mm since March 6th.
