Enjoying the rain

I love rain and the sound of rain, but only in the night 😂

I agree, we had some rain where we are in the SE, has been heavenly, yesterday was so muggy and uncomfortable, am looking forward to a good nights sleep.

The joy of a water butt filling!

Well we were promised a deluge of biblical proportions today accompanied by T&L (and possibly the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse if they weren’t busy) so I cancelled one of my commitments as I didn’t want to be caught driving in it. We had ten minutes of rain and that was it. I wouldn’t pay weather forecasters in tap washers!

Two brief showers early today and little else, no ‘heavy showers with possible thunder’, I'm still hopeful.

We go off for a 5 day hols tomorrow and it is going to rain everyday. 😏

I like your style!

Ha I went into the kitchen to put a casserole in the oven, came back into the lounge full sun again ! The patio is already dry.
NanKate. I hope you have dry interludes at least. Have a lovely time.

We had some, very little, now it's a sunny, breezy afternoon and the washing is drying well.

We do need rain (all night).

I wouldn’t pay weather forecasters in tap washers!

That much, Greyduster? 😯

Rain is forecast for tomorrow.

Yep, same here, Greyduster. We didn't even have 10 minutes of rain - just 5 mins in one shower and 30 seconds in another.

My grass, I fear, has burnt to a crisp, and is gone for good.

We’re off to North Wales on Friday for a week, rain is forecast every day.

It's been heavy rain now for a good hour. I feel like taking my clothes off and running around in the garden. Not a pretty sight though.

What rain?
We had about two spots at lunchtime. ☹️

Just when I could really do with HOT!! - since washing machine is on the blink and I’ve got an airer with a small hand wash pegged on, there’s no sun, and we’ve had some rain!!
The buggeration factor strikes again….

It will come back, Cabowich
Trust me

If not, I'll ask for my post to be removed! 😁

Torrential burst of rain just when I had to run to my car parked 10 mins away and I hadn't bothered with jacket. Soaked through and hair plastered down my head. Now bright sunshine.😡

Oh we did better than you, must have been a full two dozen spots just before lunch I was so looking forward to the promised heavy rain and thunderstorms so I didn't have to water the pots tonight.

We had an absolute deluge which lasted about half an hour - just long enough for me to get drenched walking from the hairdresser to the car 🤬

I take it all back, two really hefty showers, no thunder, lightning or horsemen grey duster 🙂

Please send it down the Solent, Jaxjacky

We haven’t had any rain, other than five second dribbles, for at least three months and our poor garden looks like the Sahara desert. To our delight it rained quite heavily this afternoon but then it suddenly stopped after a few minutes. Everything is dry again! Our village duck pond is completely dry. Please Do a rain dance for us.

Some heavy showers here in Torquay this morning - it was weird to see raindrops on the windows! 💦

I was hugely relieved to see heavy rain here today for a while, on the edge of Dartmoor.
