Shaftesbury Dorset rainfall today?
 
I was driving between Salisbury and Shaftesbury this lunchtime and drove
through the heaviest downpour I can recall being in. Regular lightning
but couldn't hear the thunder over the sound of the rain. Drove through
several lakes, some on the top of hills. At least one low-lying pub
appeared to have been flooded.

Does anybody have any idea of the rainfall amounts please? Google found
me nothing.

Returned this evening to a dry Portsmouth region!

You need a netweather subscription, then go to the V7 radar and select a
time period from the 'Rainfall Accumulations' dropdown. Then you can zoom
in on any area.

This is the the area in question:
