Yesterday: 

 

Well the driest September on record has gone for a Burton due to last nights rather unexpected storms bringing around 45 minutes of moderate to heavy rain here, leaving 9.7mm, taking the total to 12.7mm. This now makes it the driest since 1997 (10.2mm) The records go back to 1991 here, the driest on record  was 1996 with just 8.7mm, so this September was easily on target for beating that up until last evening.

Last nights thunderstorms moved away NE to leave a cloudy and mild night. Bright spells to start, damp underfoot, patchy shallow fog patches. Sunny spells through the day, dry.
