Brrrrrrr
We're forecast 8 or 9C tonight, which is a bit of a change. Certainly
coming home from dinner we felt it very cold indeed and the sky was quite beautifully starry. I heard on the radio that some parts have had torrential rain, so hope everyone is okay and no major damage done. -- Sacha www.hillhousenursery.co.uk South Devon http://www.discoverdartmoor.co.uk/ |

We have had some very heavy rain in Windsor, but the temperature is not bad, at least 20C. Alan -- Sacha www.hillhousenursery.co.uk South Devon http://www.discoverdartmoor.co.uk/ |

Torrential rain about 07-00 to 07-30 am and thunderstorm which knocked out
signalling north of Wolverhampton, causing severe delays on rail network from Shrewsbury To Wolverhampton and Birmingham. Was very mild last night about 23-30 when I took dogs down garden . At 22-00 hrs tonight (weds) the outside temp was 10.9 C Which is warm for this time of year at night. Still makes up for cold and late spring this year. regards Cineman "Sacha" wrote in message ...

Monsoon type rain and heavy thunder and lightening on our drive to Camberley mid morning, main roads flooded quite deeply right across in places, and the large Notcutts GC at Bagshot were still closed hours afterwards as they were flooded out. Flood damage sale shortly? -- Regards Bob H 17mls W. of London.UK |

It occured to me many years ago that there is a simple explanation for this. Where do they build the roads? where there are no houses. Why, after 2000 years of opportunity has no-one yet put a house in that location? Could it be because those are the spots that get the worst of the fog, frost, and floods? |

Torrential rain here in North Staffordshire yesterday ,Wednesday. By a stroke of good luck the Suttons catalogue arrived on Tuesday and the Dobies one a few days before, so I spent several happy hours browsing and marking. Dobies prices are considerably cheaper on most seeds than Suttons, also more in a packet. Also it seems to me that either they are really the same company or closely connected, does anyone know? Today dawned bright and chilly, seems that Autumn has arrived.Sounds like a pretty mixed bag as to weather but with some seriously nasty stuff thrown in. There were terrible lightning strikes in Plymouth the other day while we had ours early last Wednesday morning. But today is fair and pretty bright and dry, too. The menfolk have started a massive tidy up/regeneration programme for the private area of our garden and drive and it looks like a battlefield atm but will improve soon - I hope! -- Sachawww.hillhousenursery.co.uk South Devonhttp://www.discoverdartmoor.co.uk/- Hide quoted text -- Show quoted text - Still only two days rain since April here, and daytime temps at last are getting below 30 degrees, my winter petunia bedding plants are just about ready to transfer to the window boxes, and I've just been given a papaya plant, they do grow and fruit here quite sucessfully. |
