Wittering 108 mm = 57 mm (12 hours to 06z on Thursday) + 51 mm (12 hours to 18z on Thursday). Is this correct or has some duplication crept in somewhere ?

... snip Wittering 108 mm = 57 mm (12 hours to 06z on Thursday) + 51 mm (12 hours to 18z on Thursday). Is this correct or has some duplication crept in somewhere ? Ahh, I had Wattisham confused with Wittering earlier re the initial 57mm. Looking at the radar returns from earlier it looks plausible but I'll try to confirm if I can. Would be interesting to know if anyone observed hail today ? Cheers, Jon. |

I have had an e-mail from Wittering Met. Office confirming the figures. Rainfall at Wittering on Thursday was 52.6 mm in 12 hrs ending 0900 [continuous rain over about 9 hours] and 52.9 mm in 12 hrs ending 2100 [violent thunderstorm with hail] i.e. 105.5 mm for that 24 hour period. 57 + 51 mm were of course the SYNOPs readings at 0600 and 1800 on Thursday. Thanks to the staff member at Wittering who took the trouble to write to me. Colin Youngs Brussels |
