21st -13.5mm
Changing my recording time to midnight, or 6pm yesterday, would have made little difference. So rainfallwise nothing of note whatsoever, especially compared with many recent days. The heavy rain seemed to stream just offshore to the south, before sweeping in across Devon & swirling around rather in the circulation of the low. (I hope I'm not being too technical).
The wind overnight was more notable, funnelling around Lands End. Gusts to 42mph in Penzance, 58 knots at St Ives, several gusts >60mph at Land's End between 21:00 & midnight.
