Now it's stopped for a bit but the breeze is getting up again and it's a very black horizon over there. We're going to lunch with someone who is moving to Gloucestershire and wants to give Ray cuttings of some of her most precious plants, Coo! so there's a fair chance we'll be drenched to the skin and blown to Cornwall!

writes Last night I checked today's forecast for my area, it was: Sunny intervals up until early evening then heavy rain and thunderstorms. I woke up this morning to thick fog and it's now raining. This means that last nights forecast was 100% wrong, in fact I can't remember when we last had a reasonably correct forecast in the last few months but I suppose there must have been some. While I appreciate it's a difficult art surely they, with all the super computers etc they have, they could do better than this. For a short term forecast I look at this: http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/uk/radar/ Animating it gives a good idea of what's coming in the next hour or three. :) -- Gordon H |

And which is worse? In the event, it was half and half. We arrived in pouring rain - there was a break in wind and rain while we were having pre-lunch drinks so we did a dash round the garden closest to the house, intending to do the walled garden and other bits after lunch. During lunch the heavens opened again, wind ripped up the valley and we all agreed the rest would have to wait for another time! Poor thing had a Rosa banksia torn off the front of her house almost as we watched. Luckily, it wasn't actually uprooted. -- Sacha http://www.hillhousenursery.com South Devon |
