After a weekend of high winds and heavy rain this was the view from the conservatory yesterday evening. The rain had eased over us but the distant clouds looked like they were touching the roof tops in town. Back to work today and the sky is blue.....Typical!

That's not great is it...rain all weekend and sun on monday :( Let's hope rumours of a good May are true!

Hi Annie ... fascinating seeing the clouds like that !

30 Apr, 2012

 

This was looking west TT, there was blue sky coming from the east

Karen I don't want to look at the forecast with another long weekend coming up

30 Apr, 2012

 

I was in Northamptonshire yesterday, Swan Vally. There was a lot of standing water in clay fields and the places where they're developing the business park near the canal had torrents running through the drainage ditches.

We've just had three days of pretty much non stop rain here 7 and some rain every other day since the hosepipe ban

30 Apr, 2012

 

But they say it won't help the drought. The wrong type of rain...

30 Apr, 2012

 

I know Lol!

The trouble is, the rain we require - weeks of persistent steady rain - would turn us into Denmark.

30 Apr, 2012

 

It's feeling very Danish here in Wellingborough 7

It's a cracking photo, though, Annie...

Our forecast says clearing up by next weekend. I hope it's the same for you, hun x

30 Apr, 2012

 

Oh so do I Karen, could do with a warm long weekend

30 Apr, 2012

 

The rumours could be true then, about a good May! Let's hope so. Like you Annie, I'm a little afraid to look at the forecast....oh, as I wrote that the sun came out! :)))))

30 Apr, 2012

 

..oh, it's gone again....2 seconds tops! lol

Solid rain here again today, last night was just as bad. I had an hour outside about 6 yesterday when the sun was quite warm but the local forecast says that was it for a few days :O((((

did you hear it today ? colder - yes colder! little sun, frosts and snow up north - so annoying - the worst ever year this year

1 May, 2012

 

Just in from first dry, sunny and warm day...hooray! :)
...only got half the digging done, though, and there are storms forecast for tomorrow now! :(

1 May, 2012

 

it is so annoying Karen !

1 May, 2012

 

It wasn't meant to be nice today - I think I'm just going to stop believing the forecast, Paul...

1 May, 2012

 

yes - we could be in for at least 9 days cloudy dull weather here - I hate cloudy dull makes me very depressed :((

1 May, 2012

 

I agree - but, at this moment in time...any sort of dryness works for me...at least until the digging's done!! ;)

1 May, 2012

 

We have had 3 full dry days since April 1st - we have had just 3 days above 14 degrees too - that's awful

1 May, 2012

 

I don't know what's going on...
...and much though I don't actually believe it, I'm beginning to feel a little uneasy about that 2012 thing...

1 May, 2012

 

2005 was utter crap - this year is the worst in my living history

1 May, 2012

 

Great pic Annella, lucky you having a view like that:-)
Lovely DRY day here today:-)

2 May, 2012

It was dull and dreary here and today it's back to heavy rain. Lots of flooding around us too, a large holiday/ mobile home park two miles away has been evacuated because of the river Nene. Glad I live on a hill!

3 May, 2012

 

Raining again here:-(

3 May, 2012

 

I'm losing the will to do anything Ba

3 May, 2012

 

I wish I hadn't made the previous comment saying how nice it was yesterday:-(
Not to worry Annella, you can join us in the B.A. Ark currently being built by B.A. Shipbuilding Ltd:-)

It's awful again here too, today...and hail-storms forecast for the afternoon!!!

4 May, 2012

 

At the moment it is NOT raining....OH has cut the grass, but rain forcast tomorrow surprise, surprise!!

4 May, 2012

 

I went out for an hour after work but in the garage potting as it had started again.

4 May, 2012

 

It's absolutely and definitely looking up, though...mid week...

...our hail-storms didn't happen... :)

4 May, 2012

 

Mid weeks no good Karen, I'm off Monday and Tuesday grrrrrrrrr!

4 May, 2012

 

Keeping fingers crossed for it coming early for you, hun x

5 May, 2012

 

Another grey cold day here, hope France is better

5 May, 2012

 

Thunderstorms interrupted work yesterday - could go either way today...

I don't really mind either way, Annie...if it's nice/dry I'll have to go out and do more plant moving...but, to be honest, I could do with a wee rest... ;)
