Tuesday is the week's wettest day

London, Oct 23 (ANI): Tuesday is regularly the rainiest day of the week, new UK research has found.

According to data, rainfall in Britian has increased by more than 10 per cent over the last 110 years.

The research for Manchester Science Festival 2009 also found that Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays are the driest days, reports The Daily Express.

As per the study, it is now raining more at weekends than in the past.

Atmospheric scientist Dr Andy Russell of Manchester University said: "I want to test the old theory that it rains more at the weekend, not only because rainy weekends ruin your social life, but to see whether cars, factories and industry, which are much more active during the week, affect our weather patterns."
