        Damp, windy start again here. O'night low of 9 degrees [11 just now at approx. 7.30am] with a predicted high of about 15, briefly. A mix of wet, windy and a little sun for today.

        Yesterday wasn't too bad in the morning, with only a couple of showers, but more frequent in the afternoon, and wet at night. The strong, gusty winds were present again too. High was 15 /16 degrees, but that will have been knocked back a bit by the wind.

            Hazy sun with a light breeze, 20c going to low 30s. I will just continue to dream what rain is.

                  Heavy rain overnight and continuing till late afternoon. It's too wet to venture out and check the rain gauge, going by the puddles I reckon half an inch so far. 14c to 18.

                    Rain overnight and steady rain now. Very calm for once. Max 17c. The lawns are having a good watering at last. Will be able to have a gardening free day.

                      Steady rain here, first proper rain for a long time. The various containers left outstand look to have collected at least an inch so far.

                        The same here, finally after 2 months. Rain started at 3, but turned to proper rain after 5 and has been until we left house. Water butts by the greenhouse 3sqm roof had collected 15 cm on either side. :hapfeet:

                          Looks like most of us got the overnight rain then, proper autumn here today everywhere looking a bit tired, Roses past their best and some leaves are turning golden, one of the best seasons, picking wild berries in the Glens.

                            Very heavy rain about 3am (the cats woke me up to tell me) and it’s drizzly rain now but it’s supposed to dry up later. Tomorrow looks like a reverse of today with a dry morning and rainy afternoon.

                                Just went outside and it still sounds like it's raining, even though it's stopped, because the trees are dripping so much.
