Poxy Weather

[Lancs Lad]

it claimed another knobhead in a van trying to get past that car, later in the day apparently

forecast light drizzle here last night - all night - actuality was monsoon downpour all night, from midnight on -- noise on the Velux, above our bed was insane ... eased off about six-ish but still coming down
'sposed to be dry from Monday lunchtime on, for a week .... we shall see
mixed bag for the next couple of days

Been a niceish week here TBF. Really mild

Managed to shift all the clay that came out of the hole for the drainage tanks this week!!

 

[Furniss]

Dry week ahead if it's anything like down here
Every dry weeks a bonus!

I’d love a dry week - have got a gazillion quids-worth of warm-roof bullshit to try and nail onto my house as soon as a suitable window presents itself!

haven't seen the sun here in over 4 weeks ... last three plus have been so still it's unreal - not a breath of wind ... old time sailors would've called it 'becalmed' .. haven't seen the other side of the valley in as many either ..... just dank, foggy total shite weather -- everything's soaked .. forecast's no better for the next week at least

No definitely.
Funny how we've not heard of an energy shortage as so much of our energy comes from 'green' energy

First proper cold morning! 3.5degrees on the dash! Sun is due out so should be a nice day

took hours for the fog to shift, but had a slight breeze yesterday and actually saw across the valley for the first time in weeks ... actually had half an hour's sun, but the temps had dropped substantially.
brighter morning today - might get some sun too
'bout bloody time
got three or four drums of leaves and weeds/cuttings/brambles despatched
still very still again though

Tbh I don't think we have had as wet as they make it out
The summer field wife uses for the horses I put a ditch around and land drains into it field due to springs during winter have not been running this year so far and normal start running early September yet they are still not running yet

Glorious day at Stowe yesterday. 11.11.

agreed ... we have a small spring that appears at the edge of our drive, when the water table gets down, after any prolonged dry spell ..
disappeared for a few days, after all the heavy rain, a while back - but not for long and still running well ATM ...
will take some rain to make it disappear again, once the water table has risen, as it must still be low enough for it to be here.
usually appears in May and stops September
ground must be and is pretty dry, really

 

[Lancs Lad]

Just looked back at my pics to check and it's not put anything down of note for 3 weeks here!!!

Ground is surprisingly dry especially with the Frost now

Now we know what the tune will be next spring ..due to a record breaking drought in November we need to implement a hosepipe ban..
