Valkyrie Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 Very heavy rain in the night and a change of direction too - earlier it was on the front, but by 3 this morning it was hammering on the back and sounding like someone was in the shower. Had it been light enough it would probably have shown up to be stair rods. When I got up though it was all dry - even the paths. The walk down to the girls was soggy at the bottom level of grass, although their run is dry. We have had bright sunshine too. Short lived because we had another sessionof rain and the blue sky has gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 Sunny again - unfortunately somebody is hogging the nest box so I can't do a cube clean dash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groovychook Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 We had a thundery downpour about half an hour ago but it's brightened up a bit now. Quite a bit cooler today- 8 degrees... feels quite nippy out there! Think there are more showers on the way, the sky looks very ominous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 Good news about the garden OSH Bright and lovely start, but patches of rain and increasing winds... again! Lure coursing called off today as ground is too wet, so taking doglet out for a nice long walk now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarrensWorld Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 Half of Co Galway is under water, as is Co Cork and it's still raining. We have a cat slide roof on the cottage, the problem is when it rains really hard the gutter fills very fast. This is not normally a problem, but when the wind blows at 60 mph from west nor west, it blows the water up under the tiles and into the cavity wall. We now have a damp patch on the wall just where the down pipe is. The exterior silcone sealant is at the ready, I just need it to stop raining, so I can seal it up. Minor really when you consider the people in the rest of the country who've been flooded out and had their fixture and fittings destroyed. The long range forecast says it's going to be Friday before there's any change. I for one hope they've got it wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 After dubious weather this morning while cleanign out the animals, it brightened, so I set off for a walk with the houndling; stopped off at a friends on the way - she lives on top of a hill and it was decidedly parky up there.... during the walk, it actually sleeted! The wind was very cold, but it was a good bracing walk. Dog came back dripping mud as usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groovychook Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 After a day of frequent, heavy showers, we had a night of strong winds and constant rain. It's still quite grim out there... hoping it will dry out a bit later so I can clean out the girls... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 It was blowing a gale and torrential rain last night and early this morning when I walked the dog. Much clearer now, with mostly blue skies and sunshine I hear that this unsettled pattern is to continue through until Thursday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
