This rain storm was quite exceptional. It never rained extremely heavily, the highest
rain rate was just over half an inch in an hour, but not for long; but it rained and
rained and rained. The weather reports from various parts of Cumbria were dire.
|
|
The highest official rain reading was from the Shap weather station: we had more,
10.31 inches (262mm) in 38 continuous hours of rain.
