Well here near Swansea Bay we are wondering where all this talked about
Rain is, we have had 3 short sharp showers so far today, hardly enough
to lay the dust,


The dust got washed away last night... 49 mm recorded here between
0200 and 1100. Carlisle got 73 mm in 12 hours. South Tyne responded
by rising over 6' in two hours, back down to 0.7 m or so 6 hours
later, middle of the normal range.
