Pesky Pirate 172 Posted July 20, 2018 Report Share Posted July 20, 2018 Let’s get a bit lighthearted... Does anyone else want it to rain..... the most I’ve had is a couple of drips 💧 on the window and the man upstairs moving a bit of furniture..... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
2torts 345 Posted July 20, 2018 Report Share Posted July 20, 2018 We've had a couple of short showers in the last couple of hours. No drips on the window but a big one on the sofa😄 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pesky Pirate 172 Posted July 20, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2018 I know what you mean, and the rumbling I heard was actually my neighbors getting ready to go on holiday..... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mitch 325 Posted July 20, 2018 Report Share Posted July 20, 2018 just had half an hour of rain but nowt to write home about. very muggy though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gill57 15 Posted July 21, 2018 Report Share Posted July 21, 2018 No rain for weeks, grass is brown and like hay (which the dog delights in bringing into the lounge) but on the plus side no mowing of hay is required. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Davybe 529 Posted July 21, 2018 Report Share Posted July 21, 2018 We had rain not to heavy yesterday, and some during the week. Slight drizzle today grass starting to get it's colour back,And I can sleep a bit better as the nights are cooler....Davybe Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Countrygirl 237 Posted July 21, 2018 Report Share Posted July 21, 2018 We have decided that brown is the new green. I never thought I would hear me say the words “I wish it would rain” we have not seen rain for weeks but it did pour down last weekend and cause floods just 5 miles from me. You can’t win!

towny44 229 Posted July 21, 2018 Report Share Posted July 21, 2018 It's much fresher and cooler in W Yorkshire already, more like typical UK summer weather, and I am already wishing the heatwave would return. Davybe 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pesky Pirate 172 Posted July 22, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2018 My back lawn looks like tufty, a slight trim is required I think. Gardening is good exercise but to try and dig through solid soil is a bit too much. It should rain at night and be sunny during the day..... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rain between about 1 & 4 am then sunshine all day with a bit of gentle breeze to keep us cool & dry the washing😀 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We are very Lucky to see that sunset, sadly though we have to draw the curtains as we cannot watch the TV some nights . We can see down to Anglesea ,from the front and out the back we can see the Denbighshire hills even down to Snowden. Waiting for the rain today ,hope it comes slowly it really is needed.But As Rhyl is in the Vale of Clwyd the weather here can be quit different from the surrounding area, and Ireland seems to gets most of our heavy rain🤣....Davybe Quote Link to post Share on other sites
