dailyrecord.co.uk:

The relentless deluge of rain recently left many across the UK feeling like they're living through an almost biblical level of downpour.Britons, no strangers to inclement weather, expressed their dismay over the dreary excuse for summer and the persistent rains that have followed.

Over on X, formerly Twitter, one beleaguered soul exclaimed: "British weather is so dreadful I can't take it anymore."Another remarked: "British weather is no joke like how could it be rainy, sunny and windy at the same time," and another vented: "Guys I'm so underprepared for the British weather I NEED A RAINCOAT."Despite our woes, Britain has it relatively easy on the global scale.

Somewhere else holds the title for the wettest spot on the planet, a place so wet it offers residents genuine peril. India certainly impresses with wonders like the Taj Mahal, its vibrant culinary scene, its array of colourful festivals, not to mention its rich cultural heritage.

However, it's also home to Mawsynram in Northeastern India's East Khasi Hills, the town that out-rains every other globally.With precipitation levels making it 22 times wetter than London, Mawsynrams lush, verdant landscapes tell tales of abundant rain.
