Groovychook Posted August 31, 2015 Author Share Posted August 31, 2015 It's dry here today but with high white cloud. It feels quite humid so I'm wondering if we might get a downpour later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soapdragon Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Wall to wall rain here.....Saturday OK but OH barbequed in the rain last evening and today its cold, raining quite heavily and dark. Feels ominously like WINTER! Am having to ripen the picked tomatoes on the windowsill as there hasn't been the sun to do it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 it has stopped raining here now, so i have got some outside work done, and will get the dogs out again later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlottechicken Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Persisting down here too The nearest it has got to stopping is a sort of heavy drizzle. We have a summerhouse half up, it is without a roof and floor at the moment, thankfully all the walls were waterproofed before construction Oh has a big birthday tomorrow, and insists the weather is always good on his birthday, I can't remember so am hoping he is right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Still raining here and only 13 degrees, so stove is lit, spread out hot cat in residence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 I hope you're right CC, and that OH enjoys his Big Birthday. Apart from a brief brighter spell just after lunch, it has been wet of some sort all day, neighbour has just told me that the M40 is backed up - no surprise there then I am just off out with a friend and her dogs; we will be well togged up, so shan't get wet. On a positive note... my water butts are all full Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groovychook Posted August 31, 2015 Author Share Posted August 31, 2015 Sun has been out here all afternoon and I've got my washing on the line. Most unusual for an August Bank Holiday... sorry folks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Vile here all day. We drove through Reading early this morning & have never seen so many very VERY muddy people leaving the festival!

Cinnamon Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Thanks - we shall. I could do without the travelling, as it makes me anxious, but its a means to a very sunny & very Greek end! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 its mega chilly here. Where has summer gone. And come the evenings - winter duvet will soon be out I think. OH is sinking into the doldrums - being a Cypriot means he loves the heat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Yes, it's nippy here too, Ali. After a very grey and drizzly start, the sun is out and it's looking brighter. Still cool though I have had the stove lit in the evenings, and refuse to have the heating on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groovychook Posted September 5, 2015 Author Share Posted September 5, 2015 Cloudy this morning followed by a bit of mizzle. Much nicer this afternoon. It's been sunny and very warm for the past 3 hours or so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
