Blasted rain
 

Got the first few of the tree dahlias planted this afternoon, and was
planing to get the rest in tomorrow, but now the blasted rain is back,
heavy showers and it's supposed to turn to heavy rain in the morning.

There was a touch of mizzle here this evening but didn't even wet the
window panes. And I cannot describe how threatening the sky looked,
either. All very peculiar!

And now what a change. I don't know how much but we've obviously had
significant rain overnight - it woke me up in fact. And it's raining
lightly now.

We have rain forecast for the next seven days. It's overcast and dry
at the moment.

No rain here. South East coast of the Isle of Wight

Plenty of wind. Blew the Honeysuckle over the hole in the Bluetit Box. The
birds managed to squeeze by, but I have hooked it back up now :-))

I had to go out to a meeting this morning. I cycle everywhere and this
was the first time I've been drenched in months (so long ago that it
wasn't actually unpleasant). There have been showers on and off all day
and the windows are getting wet once more now. I doubt it has gone more
than an inch into the beds but it's a start.

Some intermittent, fine drizzle during the day, but by early evening
the sky cleared. Sunshine and clear skies again this morning, which
is OK, but I'd much rather have some of Dave Hill's torrential rain -
my plants need to do some growing and sprinklers or hose pipes are
never as effective as a steady rainfall.

We had another 0.4 inches yesterday, now I just want to see sunshine
and no wind so I can get going with the planting.

I think the tables were turned at last. Chucked it down all day at my
end of Swansea Bay. I don't have a rain gauge but a non scientific
observation is that the water level in one of the birdbaths was an
inch higher in the evening than it was in the morning.

Fine day today though.

Well, intense sunshine again so I've decided upon something that I
know to be even more effective than the Zuni rain dance. I have just
donned a brightly coloured (Hawaii Five-0 stylee) shirt and am off to
jet clean the car before bringing it back to be clay-barred and
polished and buffed to a blinding shine. That has always got the
thunder gods worked up into a full fury before now so it should work
yet again. Besides, Justicia carnea and Radermachera are doing the
Lazarus thing out in the border despite having been frozen in December
and they need prolonged, thorough drenching to get going fully again.
