The rain finally stopping after 18.5 hours of continuous precipitation certainly made up for the lack of rain in the last three months, 36.3mm from this event.

Total so far today : 5.7mm

Total for month : 49.8mm

I don't have a rain gauge so it's good to know somebody close by does. That sounds about right for St Albans too. It's been a long rainy event for June in the south of England.

After several months of no rain, the recent repeated sequence of thunderstorms and now todays washout has delivered nearly 80mm this month.

Weve had 25mm today alone, and it still falling.

I suspect this will go down as one of the wettest Junes on my record as we are only just past the mid way stage.

---

Up to 86mm for the month after todays rain.

I thought we would miss it today but has been nearly 5mm taking month to about 102mm

---

30mm and still raining steady, around 70mm for this month currently.

Today so far 2.8mm.

Last 24hr 3.0mm.

Month 55.9mm.

Year 716.0mm.

---

61.6mm to date

---

37.2 mm This Month

---

Update... we now have over 100mm recorded.

A very wet week indeed.

Grass is looking healthy tho 🙂

---

37mm for the month now at Blackbushe airport.

89mm after todays showers. 

14mm after a further 1mm today

The BBC Louise Lear assured us that everyone's gardens had had a good watering this week but not the case on parts of the SW coast still only on 14 mm since start of May. She promised another inch from the incoming front overnight tonight but doubt we will see more than 5mm out of that.

61.6mm to date

Quite a big difference between us Jim despite you only living on the other side of Leeds. 

We managed to scrape another 1mm yesterday from a couple of beefy showers, so just hit the 90mm for the month.

Not sure how much we'll get overnight tonight but looking at the ECM it's touch and go whether we'll reach the 100mm mark before the end of the month. 

It's always good to get to 100mm

I am on 89mm so pretty much consistent with your total.  

The grass is greener than I have seen it for a long time. 

Funny old year with rain with lots of extremes.

February saw big differences in rainfall totals across Leeds too much higher this side.

It's been a long time since I last had any decent rainfall to report here and what I am reporting just now, still isn't a lot.

Indeed, the rain which has fallen over the last 24 hours is still well short of what is needed in order to alleviate ongoing shortages here in the east of Scotland and with the way that things are going here, it wouldn't surprise me if we had a hosepipe ban in the east of Scotland before too much longer.
