UK weather: When is it going to rain next?

If you can’t remember the last time it rained, you’re probably not alone.

June was actually wetter than average in the UK, which may come as a surprise given our recent weather, but for England and Wales most of the rain fell in the first two weeks of the month.

Since June 15, most of England has recorded less than 10mm of rain, with large areas of central southern England seeing 3mm or less. Meanwhile, Wisley in Surrey has had no rain for 36 consecutive days.

Most of Wales has seen less than 25mm (1in) of rain since mid-June, but the north-east was particularly dry, with Rhyl in Denbighshire only 3mm.

Blockage of the Thames Water Pipe It comes into effect on Thursday, on top of other restrictions already in place for customers of other water companies in the south of England, as parts of southern, central and eastern England have been announced. Close to drought.

Northern Ireland recorded 67% above average rainfall, while western Scotland was the wettest. However, July was much drier than average in Northern Ireland and much of Scotland, although rain continued in the highlands, with Aultbea already reaching average rainfall for July, and more on the way.
