Gutted no rain
« on: August 25, 2013, 08:06:32 »
The forecast was for loads of it.  We had a bit a few days ago, but it soon dried off in the wind, so was looking forward to the deluge.   

A huge splodge headed our way on the radar, it went right on through.  But not even one drop fell.  Another huge splodge.  Got very excited.  Met Office warning about heavy rain. 

NOT ONE SINGLE DROP. :BangHead:

Got a whole days worth here in SE London - very much needed for the spuds etc.  It has just about stopped now so I should be able to go a do some more pickings!
Moved to Portugal - ain't going back!

Same here, rained pretty steadily yesterday, and a bit more this morning.  Sun has just come out.  The rain was indeed very welcome!
