.... 30d rolling total = 21.7 mm here. We keep being threatened rain -
forecast implied 'stand-by' for heavy showers yesterday, but as a
weekend, it turned out dry, warm & reasonably sunny. The ensembles
suggest more 'worthy' rain over the next 72 hours or so, so here's
hoping.

Hope not on Wed pm: that's when my gardening lady comes. But yes, in
general we need rain of course. Having said that, it's still nice to sit
in the sun with the crossword!

Just looked outside. There has been a drop or two of ppn in the last few
minutes, but not enough to tip the bucket yet. No doubt more later.

.... these products have been indicating something more substantial in
a couple of days time ... the period giving the highest yield changes,
but the broad idea has been steady:-

if it's right, then you might be lucky Wednesday - just get ready for
a deluge on Thursday!

After that, perhaps out with the crossword again :-)

I was caught (West Bay) by the rain 30 minutes earlier than I
predicted - 1130 and it reached the Fleet area at 1200. Not a lot to
start with but it totalled 6.4 mm here at Hilton and 7.1mm at work
down the valley.One more band to go on the radar but I think after
midnight.

Who knows over the next couple of days. Either you or Hugh or indeed
myself might end up with 'good' totals.

Good for the garden

A further 7.6mm. VERY welcome. Local farmer will be much happier too
after a good 'arf inch

.... 14.8 mm according to electronic gauge (to 08/08Z) since 09Z
yesterday - a very welcome 12mm or so overnight, roughly double what I
was expecting. Period of heavy (embedded convection?) rain between 02
& 0330Z.
