This rainfall event was major by any standards. Apart from a 24 hour
total of 82.1mm, the intensity of the rain in the evening caused the
river in Bone valley, a few yards from me, to rise to record levels,
washing mud through houses. Yet in the world according to the MetO it
doesn't exist. The wettest place in the 24hours to 18:00 yesterday had
18mm, Around 59mm of my total would have fallen in this period. So far
emails to certain weather presenters have gone unanswered, no even a
mention on Spotlight (no NT properties involved?)

Well, Graham, it will certainly feature in the Sunday Telegraph
(and The Week) ... unless, of course, something heavier comes
along before the end of the week!
