Been to the lottie to dig up spuds and some beetroot, ground was dry on top, as I was finishing I could hear the thunder rolling, come home and it poured down for about half hour, puddles everywhere but its warm and humid now. ::) :-\ ;D ;D ;D

its 23 degrees in the house, i had to close all the windows as there are thunder bugs all over the place and i hate them.

The sky is gray and winds are up and i am hoping the rain will come soon, as i have not been to water my plot.

My parents said a massive thunder storm hit about 6am this morning in kent and i have had a migrane all day so i am sure that its on its way here.

The forcast has it raining here all next week as well

Nothing here yet but imagine it will be here soon - very grey - been grey all day.

Just scanned down the front page of the site above... and its freaky... floods and drought all over the world.

If this is global warming then I'm worried - very worried!

I was talking to someone yesterday and in Hull it has rained everyday but two for the last six weeks. (supposedly). Yesterday was one of those whilst I was at the football, but guess what, when I got up at eight to go to the plot to sort it out what it was doing in sunny Hull?

Had a big dowpour around dawn this morning with a couple of rolls of thunder, hot and humid all day.  Rain is forecast here in this part of Essex overnight and tomorrow.  I am planning my first full day at the allotment tomorrow since the op so I don't mind the rain tonight, but would appreciate a fine day tomorrow please.

Rained all day again in Shropshire, though Saturday was a nice day. Rain forcast for most of the week here.

forecast looks like rain for at least the next 2 weeks... so much for summer eh! I think we had it in April to be honest.  THOUGH a friend told me new york is over 90 degrees... and apparentely we follow their weather so when they get heavy snow we do and the theory is they have a heat wave... so will we!  fingers crossed.

Sunny in Manchester, woohoo!  Must be a joke of some sort, played because I am at work. :(
Still, take the good weather where we can!

Went to the the plot this afternoon just to water the GH & stuff under glass. Ended up spending two hours watering everything as it was so dry!!!

And it rained this morning!?!

Rained a little in the wee hours, but the allotment was dry by the time I got there, and no rain all day.  Very very humid though.
