1.5 mm Today

52.5 mm This Month.

After some more rain fell last night, my back yard total for so far this month now stands at 133.6 mm.

And it's not even halfway through November so I wonder if I'll end up with a Winter 2013-14-style 200 mm for the month.

1.5mm This Morning

54.1 mm This Month

10mm already so far today (up to 3pm) brings our November total up to 94mm.  Already the 4th wettest November I've recorded (since 1982) at the halfway stage of the month.

More importantly though, this has now just become the wettest Autumn I've ever recorded with 316mm so far, already surpassing the infamous Autumn 2000 rainfall of 315mm.   Astonishing.

A total of just 0.8 mm of rain fell at Edinburgh Gogarbank during the 24 hour period which ended at 9am this morning, along with just 0.4 mm at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh.

Since 9am this morning, it has been completely dry at both of those stations.

For Edinburgh Gogarbank, this brings the total for this month to 54.0 mm, the total for this autumn to 229.6 mm and the total for this year to 787.0 mm as at 5pm this evening.

This that a minimum total of 19.8 mm of rain now needs to fall at Edinburgh Gogarbank between now and the end of this month, in order for this month to go down as being wetter than average there overall in terms of the actual rainfall amounts.

For the botanic gardens in Edinburgh, this brings the total for this month to 50.8 mm, the total for this autumn to 236.4 mm and the total for this year to 773.4 mm as at 5pm this evening.

This means that a minimum total of 11.4 mm of rain still needs to fall at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh between now and the end of this month, in order for this month to go down as being wetter than average there overall in terms of the actual rainfall amounts.

This also means that a minimum of 4 official rain days needs to occur at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh between now and the end of this month, in order for this month to go down as being wetter than average there overall in terms of the number of official rain days.

In addition to that, this also means that a minimum of 4 official rain days needs to occur at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh between now and the end of this month, in order for this autumn to go down as being wetter than average there overall in terms of the number of official rain days.

Thursday's heavy rain event gave 22mm in total here, bringing our November total to 106mm, already the wettest November here since 2009, and not far to go to be the wettest I've recorded.

Also, it is the first time that I've recorded three consecutive months of more than 100mm, going back to 1982.

Autumn rainfall now up to 328mm, only now 2mm short of being the wettest of any season I've recorded, not just the wettest Autumn.
