28.5 mm 1800-1800Z 23 Nov. at Wembury.
Surprising amount at this 'no orographic enhancement' location. Even Postbridge at 369 m on Dartmoor only had 34 mm. Not well forecast. Seemed to be some beefed up convergence during the morning at the trough. Len Wood Wembury, SW Devon 83 m asl |

I swap monthly rainfall data with friends around Devon and occasionally Ivybridge gets more than me. Usually Exeter is lowest though, except last summer when they caught a thunderstorm. Will -- |

Will -- I know I don't always get orographic enhancement Will. I try my best though. I think the wind direction explains why there was not much enhancement for higher locations in Devon. It was due west, gusting gale force. Enhancement may be better with a more southerly component to the wind. Len |
