Horsham caught some thunderstorms last Saturday (brought torrential rain and hail) which saved me a job watering, but this week has been back to near continuous sunshine and not a drop of rain, and the same forecast for the next six days at least. My water butts are almost dry and I am resorting to using the mains supply on site, as I have planted out over the last couiple of weeks. I now have to work out how to plan gardening in a changing climate, when that changing climate is increasing the frequeny of locked in weather patterns that can bring opposite extremes of drought or deluge.
