None in the South East, but horses have light weight rugs on last night as it's all of a sudden gone really cold bbbrrrrrr! :)

I suppose we need some rain soon but I don't like it, bring back the sunshine :)
 
Just started in West Wales nice steady rain .We have had bits and pieces of rain with some heavier showers a week or so ago so grass still quite green but need some to bring on the hay field to bring up the yield.
Only need to get 300 small bales of the field and even last year we cut 400 off the same field so not worried.
Friends in the South are desperate for rain and some are very worried about the hay situation as no one has much left over this year many are still feeding hay as the fields are so partched.The growth so far this year on their hay fields on the south coast is zero.
 
You can go off some people you know :p


We had grey skies earlier and I thought we might get some rain but the sun is peeking through now so maybe not :(
 
I was spitting last night in Hampshire.

I had finally got around to standing outside and watering the front lawn (OH very precious!) had been there a few minutes and could feel spots of rain! I thought well that's just typical isn't it!!!!!!
 
It's been cold here in s yorks for a few days now, & this morning looking at the sky it looks like we may get a spot hopefully!! Although I heard forecast for sat is thunder & lightning!! Probably will cos we're off dressaging!!
 
They reckon we're going to be getting rain over the weekend here in west berks but they've been saying that for the past few weeks so i'm not holding my breath!

Must have been a scattered shower cos I didn't get any :(

Suppose the sun does shine on the righteous :D
 
We've not had any rain for at least 6 weeks and our grass, what little there was (still not recovered from last year) is sizzled to nothing. I'd also like some rain for Swinley Forest - the lass from the fire brigade was saying on the radio that as it's burning underneath they need a weeks solid downpour to completely put it out. We can see the smoke and smell the fire from here at times, and we're a good 20 minutes or more drive away.
 
This time I am suing the Met Office if we don't get the promised rain.

Its an emotional rollercoaster, being promised rain - and then as you get nearer the weather forecast seems to forget all about it and just publishes those horrible yellow round things with NO RAIN.
 
Ive done the rain dance, ive even packed away rugs in the vain hope it will bring rain, but alas nothing yet keeping everything crossed need some so badly
 
It's raining in Glasgow woo hoo (never thought I'd hear myself say that...). Just hope it remembers to stop in plenty of time for Blair this year - it's kind of forgotten the last three years running...
 
i can hardly see across the valley its raining so hard now!
Just popped out in the car, had the wipers on FULL and still struggled to see....
We have rivers running down the yard and its hitting the ground so hard its pressure washing the patio for me!

Have i rubbed it in enough yet? :D:D:D
