Matter resolved having emailed MO They replied very quickly: " Thank your for your recent email. I have checked with our service team and you are correct, the figure is erroneous. We were experiencing problems with our rainfall equipment at Milford Haven - As a result, a rainfall reading taken at 0100hrs, indicated 88mm! Throughout the day, the rainfall was in actual fact relatively light, with 5.8mm recorded. I hope this helps answer your question. Thank you for taking the time to point this out."

I just thought its got to be wrong! Nothing drastic on the radar; most of the 122mm supposed to have fallen in the 6 hours to midnight; no reports of flooding in the vicinity (at least not on BBC SW Wales); other stations in south and west Wales reported modest falls of below 20mm (including my own). Would just appreciate some input or ideas of others on this, as if its an error, it then casts doubt on the 'official stations' we take for granted of being correct?
