Blimey, it has been wet up your way. I presume you had that very dry May as
well which makes it all the more impressive?

A total of 337 mm so far doon 'ere, which is a shade under the average.

Hi, Alan and Nick,
Wow, that's a lorra rain, Alan! My wettest for a whole year was in
2000 with 1144.6mm (norm 820mm).
More worrying for me is that Copley is currently wetter than Devon!
What's happening to my rain-shadow? Must be that Global Warming again
(;0).
So far, 403.7mm, normal to end of June is 385.4mm
Best wishes,
Ken
Copley, Teesdale

I wouldn't worry about! I live in the Devon Desert.

Average for Exeter Airport for June (1973 - 2000) is 41.4 mm. And I reckon
here in the Otter Valley is rather a bit drier than that average.

Lovely day here with sunny spells.

(12:00), 20.4°C, RH 55%, DP 10.6°C, 1020.2 hPa (S), Wind 7 mph SW.
