[Rainy]

Rain most of the day. Steady, sometimes heavy. Seemingly no end to it.

A couple of days ago, Sept record was broken (since 1968). Expecting we will have reached 300mm by the end of the day (10 BST) tomorrow. That's near enough a foot of water for goodness sake. -- and on the top of the three previously very wet months.

[Richard2901]

5.2mm of rain overnight then the day started cloudy which was stubborn to clear but we ended up with a lovely warm and sunny afternoon

Was able to sit out in the garden for a while, for possibly the last time this year, then went for a walk and noticed plenty of red and yellow leaves already which we never saw at all during last years awful unrelentingly mild autumn.

Max was 17.5C which is the highest reached during the second half of the month. Sunshine totalled 4.58 hours.
