It seems incredible that it was only a week ago that the allotment was too dry to contemplate autumn digging. Now after a wet week it may well be too wet. We haven't visited since the rain started but over the last week we've had 68.2mm (2.7in) of rain. That's well over a month's worth of rain since last Monday.

Last Tuesday was the equal wettest day of the year but that has now been superseded by Sunday with 20.4mm (0.8in) of rainfall.
Needless to say we haven't done much on the plot with all the rain but we did visit the North Yorkshire Moors Railway Autumn Gala and rather unsurprisingly it rained there too.
Yes, that's the way it is, isn't it. Maybe you'll have a Goldilocks day sometime soon, just right! The misty photo with some slight color is just right for the season.
ReplyDeleteDoesn't seem to want to stop raining. Constant stream of low pressure systems coming in off the Atlantic at the moment.
