Default Correction to Rainfall from Southcote

Just had a 'senior moment'

Forgot to subtract the 10mm added to raingauge to melt the snow.
Not used to recording snow these days.

Rainfall (09 - 09) should be 12.2mm

.... had the same problem here with the hail to melt - had to add 6 mm
to the gauge to encourage it to melt, before the lot froze in the
collector!

Very small 'drifts' of hail left over this morning - otherwise a
cracking start to the day - crystal blue sky and temperature climbing
smartly from an overnight low of -1.3°C, which is a remarkably low air
min given our very enclosed garden. Hurn down to -2.8°C.
