OverviewExcerpt from The Edinburgh New Philosophical Journal, Vol. 2: Exhibiting a View of the Progressive Discoveries and Improvements in the Sciences and the Arts; July October 1855 The important fact that there is no necessary relation be tween the total fall of rain in any given time, as the yearly period, and the number of Showers, or of rainy days, may seem paradoxical at first, but not so if duly reflected on, and taking into account that commonly where most rain falls the rain-drops are largest - the showers are heaviest. In London, and in the midland counties, a fall of 1 inch of rain in the twenty - four hours is unusual, whilst here, I speak more particularly of Ambleside, a fall of 2 inches in that time is not unfrequent, and even more this last yea-r, a drier year than usual, as much as 445 inches fell in the time specified this was in November.
