 Above:  Large cumuliform clouds leading to heavy showers building in the distance over the North Downs as seen from the South Downs at Chanctonbury Hill. Taken around 17.00 hrs on the 15th June. It was sunny most of the day on the South Downs and across the south of Sussex, a typical situation in the summer with the Channel preventing showers forming for quite some way inland. It is the opposite in the autumn and winter with enhanced rain for the Downs and coastal locations and this helped to give a mammoth rainfall total for October 2020 of 233.2mm at Storrington.

The first issue of Weather eye in 1998.
