Default Line convection

Came through Wokingham at 0748z, very intense burst of rain, lasting about 1
min, measuring 68 mm/hr rate. Temperature dropped 4C (16 to 12), and
pressure rose 2.5 mbar. Quite gusty, max about 32 knots, but no more so than
earlier. Second line on radar produced intermittent light rain and drizzle
around 0900z, cloud now breaking up to northwest as I write (1055z). 24 hour
rainfall to 0900 was 15.1 mm.
