It sounds a bit low for the conditions you're describing. Alan, yes that was correct for the time I looked. The rate has been up and down like a bride's nightie. One minute 15 mm/h the next less than 1mm/h. At no stage would I have described the rainfall as torrential, just very heavy which is why we only got just over 30mm. The storm was notable for the fantastic lightning and loud booming thunder and of course the shelf cloud with rotation. Highest instantaneous rainfall rate from my Davis AWS was 92.7 mm/h at 0500 local.

... One thing I forgot to mention last night was the strong and gusty wind max gust was 28 knots at 0445 local. Some decent gusts here too, Will, which I wasn't expecting much given the initially very high base. Although that came down considerably after dawn. Jon. (Mid-Devon) |
