Who's nicked all the rain out of a showery forecast????

We had 5mm.

Forecasts keep changing though - last week they forecast a dry warm June, this week it all turned to a wet 10 days and now they are saying sunshine and showers and all the days keep changing.
I really don't know why they post 2 week forecasts. They struggle to get the next 5 days with any accuracy. And as for those sites that say we are going to get 4 mm of rain between 2 and 6 pm in 14 days time.....?

Nothing here, some drizzle last night but not even registered in the gauge, plenty of beefy showers about this afternoon but managed to miss them all.

Another 3mm today at farm.
Was in Banbury laying some blocks in daughters garden just 3 miles away. It rained, hailed, thundered, just as I had pointed the bottom course and washed the ruddy lot out. Flood at the bottom of the street too.
You cant get rain when you need it.
Just a narrow swathe of us left with shite crops now then; and with bumper yields in Eastern counties, chicken corn will be worthless too:rolleyes:.
