Default 2mm of rain this year

I know this sounds stupid, espically for you guys Manchester way, but in Southend we have had 2mm of rain this year. Thats it. Great Wakering which is 2 miles from Southend is in the Guiness book of records as the only desert in the UK. Now this all sounds great but my garden is dying, infact everything green is dying and we need rain badly. Any way I thought I would share this boring crap with you all

Gee thanx!
We caught the edge of a Tornado last week and where it touched down one person was killed...... and a large amount of property was flattened.

Warning there is an "F-bomb" in the clip


And the aftermath.....



Then on Saturday we had the remnants of a hurricane blow through........though thankfully we are so far inland they lose their destructive ferocity !
Think we had 2mm of rain in about the first minute

NO sympathy from me I'm afraid, Plymouth has been horrendous for three years now (summer wise!)

My first year in Plymouth it started raining in October and rained at least once every single day until March. Being a student who had a 20 min walk each way each day (that I could be bothered to go in) I've gotta say it wasn't the greatest experience!
