where is the rain they promised??

Here in Hampshire. Thumped it down most of the night and just got back from yard where we have minor flooding and a thunderstorm.

OK God you can stop now!
 
rain here although i am in somerset - about time too - we have had no rain it seems for almost a month so dont wish it away too soon x
 
I know!! We were supposed to be team jumping today but it got cancelled due to heavy thunderstorms forecast, no sign of them!!!
 
The promised overnight rain failed to materialise but it appears that a sparrow has spat on my car - that is the only possible reason I can come up for the tiny amount of drops of moisture on my car ;) I would hardly call it rain! Hopefully it will come, I do my nightly hosepipe round the garden raindance, I obviously need to work on this more :D
 
Had a shower, not enough but I'm grateful for anything. The ground smells wonderful and you can practically hear the plants guzzling their first drink for weeks!
 
Oh well just seen forecast & its gunna chuck it down tomorrow, should have guessed really cos we're out dressaging!!!
 
No a drop here, and I was so excited about riding out on soft ground!

Who do I sue for unfulfilled expectations .... God, The Met Office, The Government ... so frustrating.
 
:D

I think we can thank my farmer landlord for the rain in East Surrey - he cut his hayfields and was going to bale them today :rolleyes:

Ahhh.... now that is one raindance that works... here too.

It's splashing down here with great vigour and I've never been so pleased to see rain!!!! :D
 
We have had some during the night in Staffs and just having another shower here! Love it! However hope it stops at lunchtime for a couple of hours when my daughter has PC jumping rally (on a surface)! I'm sure the rain will reach the whole country over the next few days!
 
A little rain here but upstairs has turned the tap off now, no thunder but it looks like it could!
Have sedated one of my dogs incase (noise phobic) and have a viewing of our house today (trying to sell and move to Wales) so it's all go!
Oz :)
