Heavy Drizzle, but not forecast?

[Barleymow]

Been hot and sunny for 4 hrs cloud now moisture won't go below 16.5,how long will it store at that with pedestal ventilation, all crusoe

I’m sure grandad said they used to cut wheat in September? He built a grain dryer with bins in the 1940’s, so they must of had similar weather?

Drizzle passed through at around 16.00hrs today. Just enough to put the mocca's on things.

 

[Nick.]

We had more this morning. It didn’t even show on the radar.
But enough to stop us combining, again.

Warm here this evening 18, but rain forecast tomorrow.

 

[Andy12345]

Just typical warm front associated weather, very difficult to forecast with any accuracy. The cloud only has to be a few hundred more feet deep and the drizzle forms .

 

[Gordy1]

18 here with a high of 20 forecast later patchy cloud but no mention of rain on theYR app for this immediate area.

A shower stopped me combining at about 8.30 last night. And it’s rained overnight.
Typical as it had got down to 15.2% . Shows it’s properly ripe now as no liquid sunshine applied

Looks like all next week similar, dull and 18-20 C. Will be a lot of drying going on but not too bad drying down from 16/17. Rather that now than 20+ later

Drizzle again where we are cutting this morning. It’s a lovely day here at home and we could cut. Was good at both sites yesterday but a day off for a wedding, typical!!

This morning we woke up to heavy drizzle which was not forecast by the Met office in its computer generated forecast or the notes created by a forecaster. Drizzle was not mentioned on WeatherPro either.If any professional weather forecasters read this , why was this heavy drizzle/ light rain not able to be forecast, a farm about 15 miles away has had 3mm.
Tetbury/ Cirencester area.

Same problem here Saturday morning.....Check forecast Friday evening to be dry all day so get an early start to go spray some oats and wheat for a farmer....get there and what do I see coming over the hill rain....Making the early start pointless as I had to wait for the crop to dry.

 

[Zippy768]

He is, I’m very happy with the arrangement

Go on, spill the beans.....who are they?
Could do with a contractor next year

Had ten minutes of drizzle at 5 up to then it had been going well, just managed to finish the field we were in, started at 18% was down to 16 by two, gleam viscerally ripe now thrashing very easily and lovely sample apart from wet patches where the redshank we are plagued with has grown up in the last month.

overnight heavy shower then another around 5pm this afternoon put paid to any thoughts of harvesting but has taken the pressure off being in two places at once ,as preparing land for osr and clearing the backlog in the store
