... According to my Maplin weather station, we have currently received 147.6mm
in Carmarthenshire, and as we are currently in a middle of a thunderstorm,
I wouldn't be surprised if we topped 150mm by midnight.

Well, thanks to the thunderstorm we ended with 166mm for the month, of which
23mm fell on the 31st, and we had rain on 20 days (slightly better than
July's 25 days).

I've just added up the daily rain for Manston - I live about 4 miles
away. They had 17.6mm, which is nearly twice Keith's record across the
water at Southend. I did notice from time to time in August that some
light showers developed over the Thames estuary and gave us some very
light drops. It's still incredibly dry here. I last mowed my lawns in
mid July. They are hardly lawns now - not even a hint of green in
them.
