The Weather Thread #3

Recommended Posts

A storm of biblical proportions - thunder, lightning and torrential rain. The patio is under 2" of water, it looks like a paddling pool. And it's still raining!

 

Discovered the new cat is scared of thunder! :( Poor thing was cowering under the bed.

Beautiful summer morning here too.

Hubby goes to work at 6 so I got up and went for a run with the dog. Fields are drenched.

Going camping this weekend so it better stay fine as we'd have to go even if it was raining.

We hiked and camped the Coast to Coast three years ago and it poured with rain every day.

He's talking of doing it again :(

We had storms forecast from 4pm yesterday and by 8pm when the sky was clearing we thought that apart from a few spots they had passed us by, so we went to the allotment to water some newly planted things. While we were there we could hear thunder and saw some amazing sheet lightening, but the sky looked pretty bright where the weather was coming from and there was a great sunset, but of course as soon as we left it began to rain and did so heavily for the next hour or so. never mind all good for the garden.

 

I had moved a few young shrubs on Sunday and needed some water for them, I then discovered this morning that the chooks had dug one of them up during the day yesterday, a holly bush no less. :roll: I have replanted it this morning.

It started dull and threatening this morning, with strong winds. I went out to the allotment to pick the strawberries before it rained. Part of the tree which hangs over our plot from the school field next door had blown down overnight, fortuneately only over the pond and the surrounding nettles. We should get some water in our water butts now because the tree was covering the shed roof. I am amazed that it didn't damage the shed. :shock:

 

It has just started raining here.
