      Well I said it would be a different story today!! It certainly is too. With all our windows opened it sounds like we are right next to a river!!! We have a solid 100% precipitation until 1pm then it drops to 94% and an active weather warning in place for today.

      Our lane will definitely flood with this amount of rain plus the run off from the hilly fields too.
      This is what makes our gardening experience so challenging with such weather extremes ...we have strong winds too on Friday !!

      I'll be in the greenhouse potting up loads of seedlings.:biggrin:

        Just started raining, you can always guarantee that once it starts raining here it just won't know when to give up.
        Autumn has come early.

              Very heavy rain and strong winds, not uncommon in summer now.

                  It did the same last year I think, the rain comes too early for any crops ripening and too late for when stuff is growing.
                  Dead potato plants now muddy, onions drying off, now muddy.:mad:
