              I need rain here too and there's none forecast for the next week and a half. That's as far as I can see ahead on the local weather forecast.

              A cloudy and misty morning followed by a sunny afternoon. Back to cloud and mist as the sun started to set. 8C/46F

                        Certainly do. Our ground is cracking up and getting difficult to work. I've bought a new 50m hose to help reach the parts others can't reach. :rolleyespink:

                          It is grey and damp, 8c going to 18c. Had a light shower 6ish and might get another soon. However, the forecast rain through Tuesday appears to have gone fora.

                          Not having rain for five months with temps in the high 30s constantly makes our ground crack too. However, having mostly drought resistant, evergreen plants and a hose is how we manage.

                            Lots of blue sky but also a fair amount of fast moving low clouds.

                                Do you think a downpour would actually achieve that.
                                Reservoirs usually take an awful lot of rain to refill after a drought.

                                When we had a long spell of below average rain fall some years ago I can remember the water companies blaming the vegetation for mopping up what rain fall we was getting and that virtually none of it was reaching reservoirs. :biggrin:
