Rainfall Statistics, 2012

[picog]

Just shy of 100mm in May, so overall, very wet.

Feb: 10mms. Very dry.

Mar: 1 mm Exceptionally dry.

Apr: 73 mms. Above average.

[Somerset Squall]

June has already surpassed May's total here and we are only a week in! 43.0mm so far

[The PIT]

Same here just gone over 50mm for the month passing Mays 47.1mm and hunting down Junes average of 67.8 mm Should be close by Saturday morning.

[The PIT]

Looks like we will pass Junes average rainfall today the question being by how much.

[sunny scunny]

16mm of rain in the last 24 hours and 38.3mm for the month so far.

[Terminal Moraine]

45.7 mm here yesterday taking the June total to 89.8mm. The 1981-2010 average for the whole month is 81.7 mm.

[Andy Bown]

June is at 64.5mm so far, 36mm of that in the last (just over) 24 hours!

[Terminal Moraine]

Over 100mm now, the earliest date for 100mm to be achived in any month since September 2008 which managed it by the 7th.

[Bobby]

125mm here already which is 139% the average of ~90mm. Looking at the charts I can see another month twice as wet as average (April was 210% of average with 210mm)

[J10]

Before the past few days 302mm for the year so far [identical to 2011 to the date], now around 350mm (possibly closer to 360mm).

[Ben_Cambs]

35.5mm so far in June, around ~230mm so far this year to date.

[Andy Bown]

On this day last year I recorded 37.5mm as part of June's 134mm. With 91mm already and a potentially very wet few days later

this week I wonder if last year's total will be beaten around mid month!

Jan = 54mm

Feb = 16.5mm

March = 25.5mm

April = 143mm

May = 73mm

June = 91mm so far

Total = 403mm

It looks certain for many places records will be broken for the wettest ever June, with more torrents of rain forecast for the next week or so. Currently at 130mm here and there looks a good chance we'll break 200mm again in what is the direst month of the year here with ~90mm.

April-June rainfall here currently: 430mm.

[Terminal Moraine]

The June total here now stands at 140.6 mm which is 369% of the average for the first 14 days of the month- very impressive.

If it can keep it up until the end of the month the 2007 record would be under threat.

Equally impressive is the lack of sunshine. Just over 16 hours so far this month which is 21% of the average for the first two weeks in June. I've not recorded anything to approach that in summer in 50 years of records.

[Bobby]

160mm this month now after another 35mm from this system and still lashing it down with more forecsat to come.

Which is 178% the June average.

[Aaron]

Not too wet here.. 74mm

[The PIT]

My Davis reckons 115.8mm here. Plenty of time to add more.

[Weather-history]

Not too wet here.. 74mm

I would have thought that is very wet so far as that looks more typical of a whole month's total than the midpoint.

[sunny scunny]

Already 75mm here, with nearly 30mm of that coming yesterday.

[Evening thunder]

My Davis reckons 109.8mm (and counting - yep, it's raining at the moment).

[Aaron]

I would have thought that is very wet so far as that looks more typical of a whole month's total than the midpoint.

Well we're quite dry compared to many other areas of England and Wales..

[Bobby]

A slightly crazy 215mm here, compared to the June average of ~95mm, and still only half way through.
