[WR] West Moors/E.Dorset rainfall 22nd/23rd AUG 2010
.... in the 'standard' climatological rain-day (24hr from 22/0900Z),
our total rain here was 35.6 mm (against the 33.1 mm in adjacent electronic gauge, confirming the approximate 10% under-read for the latter). Just under 2/3 of the 36-odd mm came in the three hours 22/2100 and 22/2359Z (21mm by electronic gauge). We have only been recording here for just over three years (start July 2007), and in that record, our highest 24hr rain-day total was 38.2mm 18th November 2007. The total reported above for the past 24hrs is now our *second* highest, beating the 35.2 mm in May 2008(25th). Returning from run-about locally - no problems due to rainfall - hardly any puddles! Martin. -- Martin Rowley West Moors, East Dorset (UK): 17m (56ft) amsl Lat: 50.82N Long: 01.88W NGR: SU 082 023 |

The total duration was about 9 hours, but about 12 mm fell in less than an hour between about 2100 and 2200. Like you, it was the wettest day for a couple of years - since 28th July 2008. Dick |
