It was only on Friday that I posted that it was absolutely ages since we'd had a thoroughly wet day and then a couple of days later one comes along. To make matters worse it's waited for a holiday weekend.

| Temperature & Rainfall Records 01-27 August 2018 |
As you will notice from the chart above not only have we had some rain but the temperature has been much cooler too which means that the rainfall isn't drying up as quickly as it falls.
Bank Holiday Monday hasn't started off very well either with a dull damp start to the morning. It's forecast to be much brighter with some sunny spells though. There isn't much rain in the forecast for the next week to ten days but hopefully Saturday’s total of 9.4mm(0.37in) will save us watering duties at the plot for a few days.

I think your driest summer prediction is still safe!
ReplyDeleteIf the weather forecasts are correct we wont be getting any more rain in August. Tried digging a patch yesterday (Monday) and the ground is still dry and rock hard. Gave up too much like hard work!
