Little change in the last three hours. The train of showers
keep coming with the odd moderate one, frequent enough
to justify the reporting of double '8' in the past weather of
the Synop. Brief bursts of sunshine, even while it's raining.
There's quite a chunk of blue sky appearing to our east at
present, reducing the overall cloud coverage to 6 oktas.

Our local brook is full and fast flowing once more and is
threatening to spill over into the woodland which already
possesses its own lagoons. A fellow dog walker in his
seventies remarked on how he's never known the ground
to be so saturated this late in the spring before.
