They just said on radio this weather pattern ( what ever it's called ) "could" 
have turned the usual weather on its head for this time of year and north and north west will have dry spell and south wil get the H2o ,
But it's from the met office so will be a load of BS

think what you like, but l suppose on the law of averages, met boys must get it right once.
it will differ from what we think, but l sure have had enough sodding rain.

constant rain gets me down more than anything tbh. if we didnt have stock (or as much ) it wouldnt i dont think
It’s lambing time we always get easterly’s at lambing . It’s the only bloody side of the shed that’s open. It will revert back to westerly’s when we finish. Wind from the east is no good for man nor beast.

Wet for the foreseeable in forecast for ne Scotland. Never good when we get weather out of East
ratchet bayscreens are great, come back down after lambing , and not too dear ,when you take into account the better environment for lambing

after a year of rain we need a dry time but cannot see it happening, weather in this country is too crap for that. 3 months of 25deg would be nice.

Rains additive.
The more rain through winter, the more water crops need in the growing season.

A lot of rain forecast for here tomorrow
I could have drilled some of the ground yesterday if it had been sprayed off earlier in the week, but one day isn't enough when there's fert to put on and other jobs higher up the priority list.
Rained again this morning.

Are you kidding?
I’ve just checked the date and we are still in March, not 1st April.
Not a single dry day forecast here during the next fortnight.

You are right, neighbours had a five legged lamb born which is a sure sign.
In the meantime heavy rain is predicted all day tomorrow.
....then dry few days which will raise the going at Cheltenham hopefully.

Guaranteed, May, June, July be a drought again.
Yes. Was discussing this very topic yesterday. Guy reckoned his WW will be poorer later on...
I always liked a dry Spring on the beet after it had emerged and had a couple of true leaves up, as it forced the roots down, looking for water which paid dividends later in the Summer on a farm without irrigation.
