A multicell thunderstorm cluster affected parts of the Breckland region in south Norfolk on the afternoon of 16 August 2020, producing as much as 240mm of rain. A detailed mesoanalysis is constructed to analyse the meteorological conditions present using conventional observations, reanalysis and privately owned automatic weather station observations. While the instantaneous rain rates observed are not unprecedented, when maintained over several hours result in this event ranking as the highest August daily rainfall on record in the United Kingdom.</p>
