What's Your Weather Like July 2024

I took out 70l from the two water butts to fill it into the 50 and 20 l butts. Let’s see how much will fill up over night. Forecast is 20l per sqm. Rain started an hour ago.

 

Good morning all, heavy rain and a gentle breeze temp 14c to 19c
Precipitation 80%
Sunrise 4.58
Sunset 21.28
Rain showers all day, supposed to have some thunderstorms.

 

Good morning, it had rained but not that much that it was worth to have a warning. The two greenhouse butts got only around 15l each.

 

It’s rained all night and is really heavy atm. I hope it eases off for my drive to work.

 

Thick clouds and a bit of a wind blowing.
Ground wet.
15.5c.

 

27mm rain the last 24hrs the next 24hr rain 4mm . Guess our big water butt will be nearly full . I see the bucket outside our conservatory door catching the drippers from the guttering on the small shed is full ! And it’s very misty over yonder .

 

The rain's to come later on for us so I'll get outdoor jobs done before that.
It's a bright, dry start here with light clouds. O'night low was 10 degrees [12 just now at approx. 7.45 am] with a predicted high of about 15, which will be this morning, as it's to drop considerably with the wind/rain later.

Yesterday turned out very warm with a high of 20 degrees, and a nice breeze. Ideal for my outdoor painting/attaching planks job.

@JennyJB - I keep a notebook with the rainfall, and the general weather through the day, so we can be totally sad together! It's useful to look back at the different conditions over each year though.

 

Sunny with a light breeze. 18c going to high 20s and breezy.

 

Yesterday felt pretty warm when the sun came out, and only a light breeze. It hadn't started raining by midnight but it looks well set in for the morning now, and squinting at the gauge through the window I can see that it's got a decent amount in there already, somewhere around 15-20mm, so I'm guessing probably about an inch of rain by the time it stops/eases off which is forecast to be lunchtime (sorry to mix units - my gauge is in mm but I think in inches).

 

Warm and wet here today - looks set in for most of the day.

 

We had heavy rain yesterday evening and overnight. Dried to a drizzle by 9 am but still very overcast but no more rain forecast for today.

 

17c, heavy Rain overnight, still dark and Raining. The only things happy in
my garden are my Potatoes & Snails.

 

Wet. 17C. Same old, same old. Until the jet stream moves north of us, it'll be the case.

I find that on our sandy soil at least, during the spring/summer growing season little-but-often rain doesn't properly wet the soil. Either the plants suck it all straight up, or it evaporates before it can percolate down, or maybe some of each. A few mm makes things feel fresher but doesn't really do anything much beyond that. I could do with rain like today's, once a week, every week .
