Summer washout .

[Northeastfarmer]

Just a drop on a night will do

 

[bobk]

it hasn't rained yet

It's a prediction , not a comment in hindsight .

Said no woman, ever

Maybe he was on about himself...

Anyone who wishes this to continue has no feelings for fellow stock farmers or the stock themselves
I would sooner lose all my trade , get no joy out of profit from some elses pain

How come you have changed your name from forage trader,is it because you think there wont be any to trade

2 months of rain is a long time!
2 weeks is a long time come to think of it.

I do get what you mean though

I’ll take 2 weeks for starters,
I’d quite happily take 2 months if it would dry up after into the autumn.
But we’ll get what we get, one things for sure, we’ll need quite a bit to do any real good.

Most of last year was a washout . Yet could not give fodder away in the end so much about . No good for me but so what, bancrupt farmers no good either

I do t remember it like that here although we did have quite a bit of nuisance rain in August but ground was reasonably dry in the autumn until it started raining.
I even recall some on here complaining last year about 2 dry years on the run, it’s amazing how changeable the weather can be across a relatively small country, it’s not often we’re all in agreement about the weather

I'm surprised how many people on here watch the forecasts so much. Learn to "read" the clouds, far more accurate.

So can we have a forecast , Next two weeks to do well.?

 

[ImLost]

What are they saying ?

I don't know where you are, but for me they are suggesting potential rain here in roughly 48 hours time. Maybe I'm wrong, but seems to have been pretty accurate the last few months that I've been doing it. You are welcome to remind me in a couple of days, I don't mind admitting if I'm wrong.

It's obviously something you can do in your area. I have no idea where you are.

My shoulder is aching , that's enough .

I’m not taking the Mickey out of you I know it’s very interesting but does this count looking up at the clouds the Sun is out but I was getting wet ??

 

[DRC]

Bound to stay dry now

as this is being wrapped later , when another day or two and it might not have needed it .

 

[Northeastfarmer]

I don’t need the weatherman to tell me when it’s raining...my hair gets wet

 

[Princess Pooper]

it hasn't rained yet

and so far we are looking at a 50% chance of showers, admittedly on several days, so hopefully we will at least get something!

you can see clouds 5 days ahead? And yes I do know about different clouds and frontal systems.

Mackerel sky two days to rain that’s an old country saying ! but there is a change in the weather, beginning to get a stinking headache comes on when the pressure changes in the atmosphere am I the only one gets this . When father was alive always listen to the Shipping forecast was always quite accurate .

Got feed trailers out for cows and only put fert on my silage fields today

One month should be enough.
