Only rained a few spots last night. 20% precipitation tonight.

Very dark clouds over the IOW & Portsdown Hill. We're always sheltered here.

Dry until Wednesday. Yeah..right.

Looks like the hose is coming out for the beans & others.

PUP!

We have had an absolute deluge of rain here in Cheshire these past 48 hours.

really really really pig sick of this "summer" again. Flipping rain forecast for the whole weekend once more. We look forward to summer and again it is dodo.. I give up.

Me and sadgit are unfortunate victims of the North East's very own mini climate. It consists of rain, light showers, drizzle, heavy rain, gale force winds , frost (even in July) oh and very heavy rain.

Aint been to me plot in three days cos roads keep getting closed because of rain and gale force winds ggrrrrrrrrr

2007 was a total washout looks like 2008 will be too :evil:

And that has LOADS of rain

There may well be dark clouds over the Island but we're not getting any rain. Those of you up north, please push it down this way but overnight only please, pretty please

Hey kezlou & sadgit, same here. Our roads turn into rivers, visibility is zilch driving round. The plus side is my tom plants have shot up despite the wind and I've some excellent flowers opening on them. Just hope for the toms developing now. I'd planted out all my pepper plants before the weather broke, incredibly they're looking remarkably good, small but good. It's meant to be dry-ish tomorrow, then rain all next week. Yup, lovely summer :thumbdown: :nemo: same here aidy
