RMK: An entertaining morning! It was foggy to begin with. The
fog lifted around 0730z and, at the same time, slight rain
started. This continued till about 0810z, accompanied by
occasional rumbles of thunder. Just after 0810z all hell
let loose with torrential rain and frequent close and very
loud 'flash-bangs'. This went on for 10 minutes or so then
moved quickly away to the north. It was all over by 0830z.
6 mm of rain fell in 5 minutes between 0815z and 0820z, with
a max rate of 155 mm/hr. Although brief, it was the most
spectacular storm I have seen here for some years.
09-09z: Tx 21.2 (1405z) Tn 14.9 (0405z) RR 8.4
18-09z: Tg 13.5 00-24z: Sun nil
