I think that it will be a guess, too!

14.8mm yesterday and 13.6mm so far today.

Do you mean the 21st or the 24th of June?

I ask because it's a common cause of confusion. The 21st June being the
summer solstice (Astronomical Date) , while the 24th June being
Midsummers Day (Quarter Day( Legal date))

That's true in Scandinavia, but I never realised it was true here.

I know BG
Just wondering what sort of systems might be heading our way -- were the
percentages more dry or more wet !!!!


14.8mm yesterday and 13.6mm so far today.


thanks for the figures -- I have missed your reports and was wondering what
our ball park was. It was SOME rain here certainly.
