Shouldn't be a drought problem this year. After a couple of dry winters and
summers the water table now appears higher than for a long time. This rain has sunk in with it being the moderate and constant type. 3mm so far today making 72mm in the last four days. That is more than any monthly amount in the last three years barring October 05 (93) Sep 06(76) and Feb 07(86). Monthly total to date 86mm. Dave, Laindon, S.Essex |

Hi Dave,
yeah I'm measuring a particularly wet month here too, in Sturry, Near Canterbury, Kent. The nearest local average rainfall for May I could find is 45mm, and so far this month I have measured 151mm!! 140mm of which has fallen in the last 5 days. January is my next highest monthly total, with 101mm recorded. Cheers, -Ben "Dave Cornwell" wrote in message ... Shouldn't be a drought problem this year.
