Weather

Oh for a day of sunshine... but then we had our summer in April I fear. Maggi you couldn't be any wetter than you were at Kirrie when we did Back to Troughs 

[Maggi Young]

Maggi you couldn't be any wetter than you were at Kirrie when we did Back to Troughs 

That is very true, Carol... I have soaked in a bath for an hour and been less wet than we were at Kirrie that day! What a great day that was, though, eh?!!

Cut the grass today and got burnt! It did rain later, but a lovely clear evening and still broad daylight outside at 10.37 p.m.

Mark,
that's probably why we've had the driest June! Only 24 mm for the month! We've had more rain in the first week of July than all of June! And we're SUPPOSED to have a wet winter!
cheers

Maggi, we had a fantastic day at Kirrie - perhaps we should organise another one just so we can enjoy getting wet again

over and inch 2.5cm of rain fell on Friday but the weather is making up for it today. 23C and lovely sky all day

[mark smyth]

another good day today 22C but a huge thunder storm has just put an end to it. In 30 minutes it has dumped one inch 2.5cm of rain on us and it's still coming down. As you can tell I bought a rain do-dah a couple of week ago

[mark smyth]

3cm / 1.25 inches fell in 45 minutes today

[fermi de Sousa]

It's been snowing in Victoria! Some roads into the neighbouring town were closed earlier in the day.
It's now nearly 5pm and very overcast so maybe more snow ahead!
cheers
fermi
in a cold and wintry Kyneton!

I've just been to look at the river Wye, which is about half a mile from my house.

I was expecting it to be flooded, but the river is back within it's banks.

The photo shows a railway bridge. The water can reach the top of the 3 arches when there is a bad flood.

Gloucester is less than 30 miles away, so we are lucky here.

We've had some great days of sunshine recently and very little rain well, just enough to keep the garden going. 20c most days. Here are a few photos taken just now

[Susan Band]

mark, stop winding people up
I don't think we have reached 20C since before 22nd May
We were all so glad to see the rain that day, but since that time there hasn't been 2 days in a row without rain at some point

[David Nicholson]

Will you hit him or shall I! I've got skin growing between my fingers a toes and feathers where the sun don't shine

[mark smyth]

he he! The photos above show the northwest, south and east sky

How is everyone going with the awful flooding in the UK that they're showing on the news here?  Are any of our regulars (or even irregulars) affected?  Some areas they're talking about the worst flooding in living memory, so it's pretty bad I'm guessing.  I'm hoping that everyone we know is OK.  Thought I'd just post a quick message wishing everyone the best, and I figured this was probably the best place to do it.

All the best!!
