The Dogmother Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 It was lovely and clear first thing, but has been cloudy and cold since lunchtime with the odd shower. I hear we're due lots more rain from Wednesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groovychook Posted January 13, 2014 Author Share Posted January 13, 2014 It's been a cool day today. Heavy shower one minute and bright sunshine the next. Keep having to turn the lamps on and off because of the gloomy showers! When will this wet weather ever end?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Absolutely freezing here, thick ice/frost and the side roads are very dicey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gongladosh Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 not too cold in manchester, light grey sky. That said, the hens weren't in a hurry to come out this morning... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Just been out, and it's really warm in the sun, but there's still ice and frost in the shade - very skiddy underfoot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purplemaniacs Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Hey guess what...... It's is pouring down. Here too. And here too. I hope it stays dry today as it is my friends funeral. It is sad that she lost her fight with her brain tumour on Christmas Day but if it rains I think it just makes it so much worse, I hope the sun shines for her last journey.

The Dogmother Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 I hope the day goes well for you Chrissie. Dull and damp here, but warm. Not supposed to rain today according to the postie at work... looks like it might though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purplemaniacs Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Thank you for your best wishes. The sun didn't shine but it was mostly dry only a little light rain. Chrissie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 It was lovely here earlier, now it's bitterly cold, windy and thrashing with rain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groovychook Posted January 16, 2014 Author Share Posted January 16, 2014 Weird day today, had to drive to Exeter and back and encountered a wide variety of weather over Dartmoor. Mainly dominated by very heavy rain and gusty winds though but the odd patch of bright sunshine was welcome. I'm trying to pick a different route every time I go down to the chooks as the ground is so waterlogged and squelchy. It never gets a chance to dry out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 Lovely here for most of the day, fresh but not too cold, with bright sunny spells. We did have a couple of heavy showers but they mostly happened when I was in shops, so that was ok. I did get wet giving the chickens their corn at 3pm though.

Claireabella Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 I hope you don't mind if I join in but it's been quite nice here today Some cloudy spells and the odd shower this afternoon but lots of lovely sunny spells too. Had some much needed quality time with the girls, built a new dustbath (hopefully in a dryer space this time!) and pottered around tidying the 'mud bath' that used to be a garden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groovychook Posted January 17, 2014 Author Share Posted January 17, 2014 I hope you don't mind if I join in but it's been quite nice here today Ooh, not at all! Nice to have another omlet weather station to add to the map Sunny this morning with frequent light showers. It's meant to be a dry day! I think that light showers are the new 'dry' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
