Default Nil rain this month, anyone?

Hi, All,
Not Copley, although we have been dry with 22.1mm so far (15.6mm on 2nd). I've even watered the veg patch for the first time in many years!
I think Nick down in the Otter Valley has yet to record rain this month - correct me if I'm wrong, Nick. With the dry forecast could it happen for the whole month - must be a rare occurrence?
Is there anyone else?
There is always the chance of thunderstorms moving up from the south later on in these set-ups, so it's not over yet.
I love it warm and dry, enjoy!

Copley stats:-
Current, 08Z NNW 14KT, 10 miles, few clouds, 11C / 4C, 1024mb rising.

Max yesterday 16.4C, min 6.1C, grass 1.4C rain nil, sun 20th 4.5hr

June so far(differences refer to the whole month) :- M.max 16.9°C M.min 8.7°C Mean 12.8°C (0.3C) rain 22.1mm (34%) sun 101.0hr(56%) wind WSW 7.9 knots (0.2 knots)

Only 0.6 mm so far here in Wokingham Ken, but even if we have no more before
the end of the month, it won't be a record, that is held by 1925 with only
0.3 mm.

Ken, yes I have yet to record any rainfall this month. And if this
continues to the end of the month then that would be a first for a
calendar month since I started in 2005. I 'may' have recorded a spell of
42 days without any rainfall and there have been others longer than 30
days but I'll have to check to be sure and I don't have my data to hand.

I've just noticed that according to the Davis TBR, there has been 0.8 mm
of rain so far this month but looking back at the times this occurred,
the first downpour was me knocking into the TBR with the lawnmower and
the second time was due to my parents' dogs running amok with a ball in
the garden with several TBR collisions.

I've checked the 5" manual gauge and it is bone dry.

The 30-day running total in Tideswell got down to 14.7 mm on 11th,
12th, 13th and 14th June but is now back up to 27.9 mm thanks largely
to 10.5 mm in a downpour last Saturday evening. The last time it was
lower than 14.7 mm was in May 2011 when it got as low as 1.0 mm on 4th
May. That's the lowest 30-day running total in my 10 years here.
