All this wet weather is it effecting you ?

[Falkor]

My garden needs some rain

Wet weather? Been reasonable here today. Beautiful blue skies and lots if happy people.

Got to love New Zealand.

double post for some strange reason

Snails, and slugs eating everything, weeds everywhere, grass growing like mad and no sunshine to make my plants grow or tomatoes ripen.

Just a fortnight of dry sunny weather could make a big difference to us gardeners.

I noticed standing water on Hove Lawns yesterday morning - you don't often see that, let alone in July

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Another dry morning in BN8. Forecast was for very heavy rain from 10 or 11 am.

We had builders start a loft conversion on the 11th June. Had some interesting nights as the rain has seeped in. Would have thought the summer was a good time to take the roof off your house. Next time we do this we'll do it in a dry country!

has brunswick blamed the government yet?

Another dry morning in BN8. Forecast was for very heavy rain from 10 or 11 am.

The odd timing blip, but in general when the MetOffice predicted heavy rain for the next few days for Sussex or anywhere else this year, they have been spot on.

Hence Sussex rainfall records are being broken, Sussex reservoirs filling fast, Sussex's river flood plains ... are looking flooded!

Going down to Cornwall to start excavating land I have an interest in down there and if this keeps up, it ain't gonna happen.

 

[Lady Gull]

Have given up straightening my hair lately!!! Want some sunshine soon am getting fed up with this weather now!!!

 

[Sausage]

Yes.

It's doing my head in. Where I live it feels like it's rained all day every day for weeks and weeks. Endless. Relentless. It's bringing me down.

I feel a bit like Kathy Bates in Misery. I'm gonna go off the rails. I got the blues.

Finally some light rain in BN22, 5 hours after they said we were going to get it !!

 

[CP 0 3 BHA]

It's meant that I got an absolute soaking at Jodrell Bank watching Elbow a couple of weeks ago (a fantastic two hours in the pouring rain!) but otherwise the main issue has been getting a rampant lawn mowed.

Today's challenge is more with our guests than me - we run a B&B close to Silverstone and all three sets of guests have merrily set off this morning despite encountering horrendous delays yesterday and being warned to stay away today. Goodness knows what time (or whether) they'll get back this evening!

Despite the promise of continuous overnight rain that was made on the telly yesterday evening, what have we had? A COMPLETELY DRY NIGHT. Again.

Thank god for The BBC.
