1. Regional weather and climates of the British Isles ‐ Part 1: Introduction
The annual rainfall anomaly (percentage difference from normal) for Western Scotland (WS, vertical scale) and South East England (SEE, horizontal scale) for 1912–2011. The extremely dry year of 1921 is an outlier due to the persistence of anticyclonic conditions in SEE. It is noteworthy that 2011, the wettest year in the series in WS, was much drier than average not only over SEE but also over much of central England.
