Windy and warm today. Sowed some peas yesterday and the soil was so dry it was blowing up as dust in my face. Nothing into the water butts for nearly two months.
Now just waiting for the rain, due in about an hour.

With all the rain from Sunday and Monday, the water butts are full. Skies are bright and it's quite breezy. Sunshine is forecast for this afternoon so I just might plant out some tomatoes (with protection)

somerset. Grey all day, windy cold. We had 10mm of rain in a whole 8 weeks but enough to re-fill the water butts. Now getting drier by the day, it`s the wind

Cloudy with a chilly wind but still no rain and none is forecast its been a very dry spring and with water cut off on the allotment, we have been told that it may be back on this month, and with the greenhouse full waiting to go out it has not been easy

Warm and sunny today, really windy last night and rain looked imminent, but as usually just lately it blew over. Supposed to rain tonight but I'm not counting on it and have watered the newly planted stuff.

Quite relieved that it's cool and less windy today- yesterday was hot and windy, plants really dried out. Still no rain in the forecast, though.

It's turned cold here around Leicester, intermittent drizzle meant I was unable to cut the hedge & mow the lawn today.
I even kept the greenhouse closed up.

Hi Ya, bit overcast here currently, ground was damp this morning but we have only had a bit of drizzle not even enough to show on the rain gauge or damp the dust fully. More showers forecast but hit and miss so more likely to miss. If it does rain I bet it will be a torrent and run of before it will soak in. Even the farmers round us are wishing for rain its so dry. In fact looking outside the ground is dry already. Still heres hoping as I plants to put out but have been holding off. Fingers croessed and rain dance underway

Rain all am yesterday. Dull overcast so far today, but now the sun is poking through now and again so hope the skies will clear. My four raised beds are all planted up now - squashes, tomatoes, sweet corn, courgettes and salad stuff. French beans doing well in tubs, as are strawberries.
