I wouldn't say its endless, but when it does rain it is normally light. Heavy downpours are actually exciting in a country where rain is common, would you believe it?
Yeah I believe it...are thunderstorms rare there too like they are here?
Is the rain in the U.K. similar to out here where it more of a endless drizzle rather than a downpour?
It's pretty similar. Endless drizzle is very exaggerated since it only rains 10% of the time something like 800 hours per year in Seattle. We have been getting a lot of heavy rain in the fall the last few years actually, hence the high amounts.

Last year was pretty endless lol. At least here it sure felt like it. This year isn’t as bad for sure.
Last fall plus spring through mid May were disgusting.
Even June. I remember because I was walking home in the rain from thriftway and the bag was soaked and ripped and everything in the bag went rolling down the hill and I had to chase after it lol.

We get ~10 days per year (on the line between 8-10 and 10-12) according to this:
The South East and Manchester get 10-12 days per year. Scotland and Northern Ireland generally less than 4. One thing I've never seen is thundersnow, which I think Manchester gets a lot.

We had thunder snow last year. That was pretty interesting
Snow is very common here, falling on about 58-62 days per year.
How much do you average a year?
