Come on rain!

[SpotsandBays]

Anybody else desperate for abit of rain? Or well, a good soaking of rain!
My fields are so dry. For now I have grass in my fields but it’s not really growing, so once it’s gone! Gulp!
Also keen to be able to jump. I don’t have an arena so use the fields but it’s been so hard that I haven’t jumped yet. I’ve repainted my poles and set up a course so playing a waiting game now!

So far we've had spotting rain today, not even enough to dampen the dust

 

[Errin Paddywack]

Me, absolutely desperate for rain. This time last year we had grass up to our armpits, now almost need magnifying glass to see it.

 

[Tihamandturkey]

Same here in Ireland - we had a brief shower last night - really need a good downpour or 10 ?

 

[SpotsandBays]

Yeah it was spitting here for about 2 minutes ?

 

[Keith_Beef]

Supposed to be rainy in Sheffield today, and a cool 14°C, according to the wireless.

 

[CanteringCarrot]

We should get some rain and possibly severe weather in the form of wind, downpours, hail, thunder and lightning. We really could use the rain here. My lawn is toast...which is fine because it reduces my mowing.
But it has gotten dangerously dry here over the past few years and we've had fires as a result. Then the cistern was dry at the yard for a bit/took a bit to fill again. Hoping everyone gets the rain they need!

Spotting for the last 2 hours here but drying as it hits the ground, more please!

I'm very happy to see some rain. It's coming down quite heavy here (Midlands) and has been all morning. I just hope it doesn't forget to stop...

Has been raining here since about 1am this morning. Field is underwater as the ground is, so hard its not soaking in. Am in North Wales so probably moving across the country. Hope it doesn't rain all day, I've got a, lesson at 6.

Forecast said heavy rain most of the day but it’s changed to 30 % chance of a light shower and so far we have had no more than a few spots!! I have cracks in my field that would swallow a small child ?

 

[SpotsandBays]

Where is everybody based? I’m Buckinghamshire and there’s still nothing so far. I really hope it reaches us!

 

[Cavalier]

We had lots of rain in Halifax this morning

 

[Pinkvboots]

A few spots and that's it

 

[HeresHoping]

Rain in Richmondshire, North Yorks. Even some thunder! Was pretty heavy at 0630 this morning. Now it is drizzling.

NW Surrey, but it stopped as I posted the above!

Needing it here in aus to!! Cooler weather this week is better though for riding?

 

[QuantockHills]

had a tiny bit in west somerset, the grounds slightly damp but nowhere near enough for the grass....

 

[AmyMay]

We had a lovely drop of rain overnight, and judging at how dark it’s just got we’re about to get some more ?

West Wales

 

[dixie]

A tiny bit in South Devon so far, not done much to the ground. Definitely need more please.

 

[clairefeekerry1]

Oxfordshire and just the odd few spots

 

[TheresaW]

Nottinghamshire, been gentle rain on and off all day. My fields certainly need it.

 

[HollyWoozle]

I'm in Bedfordshire and all we've had was a few teeny tiny spots, as little as it could rain and still be called rain!

 

[swilliam]

South Yorks/Nottinghamshire border - light rain all morning with a couple of heavy showers. Thank goodness!

 

[The Xmas Furry]

Its bloody dodging me! ????

 

[J&S]

Rain came this afternoon. Quite big puddles on the road and a good soaking for the field.

 

[tiahatti]

Not a single drop here in Sussex. Chilly though
