Valkyrie Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 Is that Camden Camden or Basingstoke Camden (after Erin said she was going to Basingstoke and was caught out)? We appear to be fairly dry at the moment. The high cloud was to the front of us but we still had blue-ish sky at the back - with the big black monster clouds. I don't think we've had rain since I tucked the girls up. That means biiiiig deluge tomorrow - when I hoped it would just blow over during the night.

Charlottechicken Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Rain here on and off since yesterday afternoon Just back from the car boot sale in the wholesale markets and it couldn't decide whether to drizzle or chuck it down Traders were covering all their stuff up so I didn't hang around there for long.

Cinnamon Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 It's been raining here since around midnight, not especially heavy,but that freezing ,constant, soaking stuff that really gets everything wet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chook n Boo Mum Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 According to gizmo, we've had over half an inch of rain since midnight Sha x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeckyBoo Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 it's been raining here most of thenight, still raining (was lovely yesterday) and my garden is underwater - at the front door you have to negotiate a BIG puddle just to get in - at this rate I'll have to start sandbagging! I know there are people on here who've been flooded before, I really hope you all escape the worst - I have miserable rabbits and miserable chickens and a fairly fed up cat and dog and i for one am SICK of rain and mud!

Valkyrie Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 I only heard the rain in the morning and it was fairly bright when I got up. Lots of floods across the roads going to the Newbury show, but the rain didn't seem too heavy. Nor did the winds appear to be much - in fact there's hardly any. Came back via M4 and the rain is petering out - just a few drizzle spits, only needed the wipers for the spray. So is this the worst it's going to get?

Chook n Boo Mum Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Well I can categorically say that in West Sussex at midnight there was not a cloud in the sky........well there wasn't in the part I was being driven through by a lovely AA man with my poorly car on his wagon . I think the weathermen should look out of the window & forget long range forecasting..........I'm not saying we haven't had rain, we have, lots of it, just not tonight........perhaps I should now go to bed & hope it doesn't cloud over in the next 2 hours & cloud burst all over us Sha x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagazer Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 I'm getting fed up with all these 'severe' weather warnings. We end up changing our plans because of them all and then they never turn out to be as bad. I'm just going to look out of the window from now on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Speckled Hen Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Is the Met Office on a parallel Earth? Following today's rain, sleet and snow , widespread ice will form on untreated roads and pavements across parts of northern England. The public are advised to take extra care and refer to the Highways Agency for further advice on traffic disruption on motorways and trunk roads.

Valkyrie Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 I have seen and driven in much worse weather than that - although I think France and Germany had the worst of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
