The radar is looking very lively to the south with a large area of 100mm/hour plus and a core of >200mm/hr just reaching Guernsey.

57.6mm  This Month.

---

28.2 mm fell today, much to the relief of my parched lawn. 

---

At long last some decent rainfall here for the gardens.   9mm in the last 2 days brings our total up to 11.5mm.

---

30 mm today wettest day for months 

Just a fraction under 12mm here, also the wettest day for months.

---

Just 10.8 mm here in S.Essex. Very disappointing given the forecast. Ground still rock hard.

---

Up to 60.0 mm this month, following 38.0mm yesterday.

---

22.8mm here, following 17.2mm yesterday - like you, though, the lawn is still rock hard here! There's a bit of very shallow muddiness in the "wild" part of my garden, I daresay it'll dry up again today or tomorrow.

There might just be an outside chance of that happening if we get any heavy showers during tomorrow, otherwise that is probably unlikely now as there are only three days left of this month and the rest of the month after tomorrow is looking a lot drier according to the latest forecasts.

25.8mm

---

26mm, which looks like being the total for the month. Driest month since June last year.

---

Had a useful 7.6 mm early this morning courtesy of a French shower, now brightening up with a brisk east wind drying everything up pretty quickly but the reseeded portion of my lawn is coming along like great guns. 

---

Missed a lot of overnight rain totals due to battery issues but I recorded 180mm for August, while a more consistent Davis about half a mile away recorded 230mm. Over twice the monthly average but not that unusual. 

---

Very nice - there was only 1mm left in the tanks by the time those shower clouds reached here, which, as you'd expect, just vanished as soon as it hit the parched ground!

The only upside is that I've not had to cut the lawn for over a month. The grass has died away for the summer and the only thing still growing are the dandelions. The downside is that the leaf drop is now getting quite severe, I'll need to get the rake out soon!

---

31mm for the month, dryest month this year.
Had to water the garden with the hose today for the first time this year as a few plants are looking ropey.
