Its Always Raining Somewhere

Sometimes you cycle along the coast beneath blue skies then turn in land to find rain. It made me wonder whether it really is always raining somewhere.

Using data from 366 different locations to represent every aspect of the British Isles from north to south, east to west, island to mainland and mountains to coastline. This piece investigates every day of the rainy season to see if there was some rainfall somewhere.

Each row of rainfall represents a different day from October 1st to January 31st and years are shown by column from 1934 on the left to now. Denser lines indicate heavier rainfall and the rare gaps reveal the few days where it wasn't raining anywhere.
