A bit damper here in the Marches, with 12.6 mm - half of which fell in 2-3 hours as moderate snow on the morning of the 12th.

3.6mm here. Previous driest April 7.8mm in 2017. Records start 1991.

Only 11.5mm since 12th March, it's like living in Essex! 

May all change the last day of the month, which would be a shame, record wise.
