As long as you're quick off the line Caz you should manage some gardening next week and it'll feel warm enough too - just gotta avoid the downpours! 


We've had exactly an inch of rain today, though as Ian points out above, the really intense stuff is now to the west of here  Just dribs and drabs here now.

Dry and fairy bright down here today with only 25mm of rain so far this month!
However I feel that total will go up over the next few days....

Still torrential with the band thickening again to the South.

24 hours and still going, I can't remember an occurance where a band that has been around for so long is still broadening and in some areas intensfying.

There are posts on Facebook of flood sirens going off. The rain was bad down this way yesterday but looks horrendous up north. Lots of floods it’s seems.

On another note, I’d question whether the yellow warning from the Metoffice is sufficient

OK, I'm a few miles west of you two, but we've not had anything like the volumes of rain just a little further east has had. Yes, it's rained for much of the last 48 hours, but mostly just drizzle, with the odd hour or two of dry - although it has been intermittently 'moderate' the last hour or so.


Looking on the radar history, there's a pronounced gap of lighter/patchy PPN between two bands of heavier stuff.

Really has been quite bad round these parts today. Not like 2007 where we got off lightly here whilst Western parts got a deluge. Although the rain has been pulsing SE to NW the wind has been from the NW meaning no rain shadow here.

Don't be harsh on yourself , there's been a definite area of lighter & more patchy stuff between two bands of heavier PPN. I've seen the pictures of flooding round Manchester, and the boundary between 'lots of rain' and 'persistent but much lighter' is a fine one. It's also one that hasn't seemed to move much so, if you're under the heavier stuff, you're under it for a while.

What looked to be at long last a wet weekend for the east for a change and us westerners enjoying a weekend has ended up in yet another deluge for us to wipe our weekend plans as a result.

Was planning on playing golf today and instead of locally - most courses were closed as waterlogged - i ended up driving an hr to Llandudno where they had only had showers. It took to colwyn bay before the rain eased back. Played a full round before the heavens opened and had the pleasure of driving back through torrential driving rain.

Northwest England gets all the rain on an easterly... never when its snow.


 


Annoyingly... we are expecting 5o get more heavy prolonged rainfall on tuesday whilst - yet again - the rest of the country misses out. Leapfrogging everywhere else and sitting over us.

40mm of rain has fallen here between midnight and midnight. A really wet day. 


It's just about petering out now. Total rainfall from this feature- 63mm. Over 100mm for the month now. This added to 150mm last month.


Wetter at this point in the summer here than 2012 was.
