It's still raining here in Armidale and the region just east of us has now recorded more than 750mm in three days. Since I was curious about annual UK rainfalls, I went online to http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/climate/uk/averages/ and discovered that the annual average rainfalls where Phillip lives (in Poole) and Brian lives (in Plymouth) are 750mm and about 950mm respectively. That gives you some perspective on what's happening here. For the record, Armidale weighs in at an average between Poole and Plymouth (about 850mm), though Armidale is now turning out to have a fairly wet year.
