When's summer coming?

[muddybay]

that's it... I'm fed up with winter lasting for 9 months

 

[SEL]

I think we had summer on Saturday

We’ve had it today! 20c and sunshine…of course the flies are now out!! Can’t have everything!

I really can't remember the last time we went for more than five days without rain, every time it looks like the weather is improving back comes the rain. I had one day of the fields starting to feel dry and then the rain a couple of days ago has turned them back to mud again. I had to move to the summer grazing two weeks ago as the winter field was going to be beyond repair if they stayed in there any longer, but that means that the top of the summer field is now also trashed which has never happened before.

If someone does find out when summer is due please may they let me know?

This week apparently in Gloucestershire - sunny and over 20 degrees!

Having said that the BBC have got the forecast this weekend totally wrong so I’m not holding my breath

We’re on day 3 no rain now. But shhhhhhh the rain gods might hear so I’ll say it quietly.

It’ll take a good few more days like this before my wettest fields dry up but it’s a start.

It’s really warm here today, car currently thinks it’s 33 degrees. And I’m wearing shorts!

I sometimes go down to Exeter for work and the local evening summary of 'today's weather' (i.e. what has already happened) is often wrong, despite the MET office being based in... Exeter. I presume the office windows aren't actually see through

Yep
Tho, yesterday and this morning were dull but warm, now we've just had a prolonged "shower"

Saturday and Sunday was dry and sunny today has poured all day meant to be dry all week won't hold my breath.

Where do you live? I think I cried today with how much it rained

It rained both Saturday and Sunday and almost had to buy a boat for today here

9 months of winter is an understatement. I think we are on month 16 at least....

Yes just in time for Badminton!!! Which means it will probably rain!

 

[Flowerofthefen]

We've had 3 days of beautiful sunshine and temps around 18. Forecast looking good as well.

The car park and shopping village were bad enough last year

 

[The Xmas Furry]

We had summer last Tuesday afternoon and on Saturday here, been tipping it down much of today here, again, just like last Friday.

Apparently weather is allegedly supposed to be better this coming week....

That "shower" has flooded all my fields. Again.

We're now trashing summer grazing because the winter field is resting and the small one I usually use to avoid spring grass risk is a muddy pond.

To be honest I never think about badminton because it is the other end of the county to me - but yes, rain forecast for next weekend

Saturday and Sunday was glorious here.

Today it's been so cold & wet I've had to put the heating on and almost every piece of tack & equipment I used out hacking is drying in my kitchen
