[WR] St Albans - not so wet
Yesterday's storm produced a total of 7.6mm of rain which is clearly much
lower than surrounding areas. I drove back here from Buntingford via Hertford late yesterday evening and the rain was torrential at times as far ast Hatfield with a lot of standing water on the roads. From there to St Albans the Rin was lighter and there was far less water on the roads. During the first part of the drive there were some impressive falshes of lightning which illuminated the whole sky at times. It all goes to show how varaible rainfall amuonts can be over relataively small areas. Alan |

All the best -- George in Epping, West Essex (107m asl) www.eppingweather.co.uk www.winter1947.co.uk Judging by the flashes of lightning seen from your direction when I drove home yesterday evening a large rainfall total was likely - an even higher total would not have been surprising.

Another very pleasant morning on the golf course today with only the odd spot of rain now and again. Norman.
