There wasn't a dry second here all day yesterday. Little bit of a micro climate in the Vale - it's always wetter here than Arklow, and I mean always.

36.1mm on my station in Ashford today, beat yesterday by 6am (15.7mm yesterday), couple of KMs down the road only recorded 16.8mm so far to day - its all in the location

We got an extra 5.2 mm on the Wednesday overnight in Arklow so I guess an inch in total from the system.
