Still overcast, with a few spits of rain. The past 24 Hrs has seen 37.2mms, making it the wettest day to date in August & the wettest day to date in 2011. A very slow moving front was responsible & this same front will continue to pester areas to the south of us for much of today. The good news is that we should be losing its influence today, the bad news is that new fronts will affect us tomorrow!
