South West and Central Southern England Regional Weather Discussion 09/12/2017 onwards

Rain gauge has decided to stop working properly. All my other gauges are around 16mm, but my Davis has recorded 8mm. The reed switch is only registering a tip one way, so half of the rainfall will be measured. ;/

Temp is dropping here though Smartie, currently 4.8c and still falling. It was 7.0c at 9.15am

Thought it might be dropping, clouds are moving in a south easterly direction now so the winds have swung round.
