    Not stopped raining all day. Not complaining though, there are far worse things going on in this country than 24 hrs of rain where I am.

      I am officially peed off with all this rain now, looking at my lawn :sad:, or the soggy area that was my lawn, I even had a thought of gravel.
      Please Lord :love30: give us a break,:SUNsmile:, and my area has not had any of the devastating floods.:phew:.
      :grphg::grphg::grphg: to any and all affected by this appalling weather.

        It's actually dry here at the moment for a change and the sun is trying to shine through the clouds. It's 7.3C but feels colder in the wind. There's rain forecast for later though.

          Amongst all the grey sogginess the sun popped its head out today :SUNsmile: ...
          ... it took one look at the looming clouds :th scifD36: and :hate-shocked: ...
          ... disappeared again :doh:

          It was lovely though; while it lasted!

            No rain today:hapydancsmil:, but the skies remained cloudy and there was very little breeze. It's strange how you miss something that has been a "pain" for the last couple of months such as the constant rain:doh: I kept expecting it to rain all day.........just because of the fact that it has rained every day!!! The temperature managed to struggle up to 48f, but it didn't feel cold due to the lack of any real breeze. Right now the temperature is 43f and the pressure reading is 987mbs.:coffee:

                      Sunny, got all the way up to 11f. But I had to drive about an hour out of town and 15 minutes into the trip had to drive through a snowstorm. Then snowing again on the drive back until I got close to home again.

                      Forecast is cold but sunny tomorrow so I am only going out long enough to visit my friend in the home.

                        Drizzle on and off but a lack of wind, 8C/46F.

                        Even the sheep have had enough!

                        The reservoir's full to bursting point.

                        This one's genuine but there are a number of new water falls in recent weeks. I saw three in this area today.

                          Alternately sunny and dull but dry, although it looked as though it was going to rain any minute. :doh:

                              Provisional statistics issued by the MO show that December 2015 was the wettest calender month since records began in 1910. The UK mean temp for December is a record breaking 7.9C which is 4.1C above the long-term average!

                              http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/news/releases/archive/2016/december-records

                              It's 8.4C here at the moment and the sun is trying to shine through the clouds. No rain at present and just a slight breeze. :thud:
