    Yeah, West-ish co Waterford here too, and rain ! Strangely glad to see it back.
    Slightly thunder-ish even though no actual thunder, but satellite signal breaking with showers.
    I'm 200m asl.

    That's a big discrepancy between the rainfall totals of the two instruments. Why would the copper be nearly 25% less? Seeing as the ME climatalogical rainfall network is made up of all types of systems, it's worrying that these variations can occur. Which of your figures will ME use Danno?
