In the style of Homer Simpson - "BORING!"

Looks like the Midlands won't be getting much today, the 4 hour accumulation on the NW radar is very frustrating.

Thundery activity may be lacking but the 24 hours from 07.00 yesterday to 07.00 today was the wettest such period here since 12-13 December 2008! A series of downpours yesterday evening was followed by more in the small hours boosting the 24 hour total to 30mm!
