December was very mild but, of course, the main features were rain and gales. Storm Desmond early in the month gave the rain figures a boost with 220mm over the weekend. The total for the month was an all-time high as was the annual figure of 76.4ins, way above the average of 56.4. We had far less rain than the central lake district if that is any consolation.
