Impressive indeed. But I've checked it again just now and it doesn't
give you forecast past 30 minutes from the actual time. According to
it in 30 minutes it should clear above my head. It better be because
I'm fed up, really really fed up with this weather now .... It's cold
as well !!!?!?!??

We have 8 water butts and I am sure that the 3 fed from the house could have
been filled twice. No I am not doubling up on them :-(

Not too sure about the 5 along the back of the garage, possibly another 50%.
They are fed from a large garage and a shed

The whole point of it is that you can see what's coming and you make your own
short term forecast.

Yup. The clouds are moving towards my husband who's in Sweden. tee
hee He kept sending me text saying 'warm' and 'sunny' etc. That'll
teach him. It's looking really stormy above Bordeaux and Toulouse.
Maybe I should ring my folks! Come to think of it, it's moving towards
you now.

Absolutely - it was 22 degres C last sunday! Most of my folks headed
for the seaside. It's the year going backwards I fear. We've had April
showers, March hails, now we need Feb snow and it's the world upside
down.

Clearing as I speak. You're magic Martin ;o)
