When is it going to rain ?

This map!

This map!

I find most of the totally inaccurate, looked at the radar at 5:30 and it looked like the farm was getting a nice drop. Looked on security cameras and concrete was bone dry. They seem to interpolate a lot between the points and are pretty poor.

Nice sprayer, how many do you have ?

Until 7 am this morning I had got down to one.
Soon to be one again, 24m trailed advertised on idiotbook.

Been raining here since before 08.00.
Concrete has one or two spots on it.

Just as an aside - I recently got told about Windy.com by a friend on a football forum of all places !!
Joking apart ,I find it very good as a general indicator of whats happening (not just wind lol)and the tools on the sidebar are very informative too, and you can switch models etc

Give it a try if you haven't , it makes a change from the Beeb although I am sure you weather zealots might know of better

Well that was another disappointment
9mm to add to the 9mm on 18th May that got sucked out by the wind the following two days.
Nothing else forecast for the next week other than a 50% chance of a light shower on Saturday.

4mm , enough to temporary stop the dust!

F***ING pissing down here

SFA so far and I think that's it.

Nothing here in west Suffolk, looks like it’s petering out on the rain radar.

This map!

Lol! Yes you'd think so looking at that map, nothing really to speak of, a few spots! Hope we get something later, they were saying they thought some heavy showers will push up this afternoon.

1mm. Can still kick dust up in the yard. Stopped the shearing. Those rainfall radar things are rubbish. Showed heavily rain over us when it wasn’t raining at all.

 

[Frank-the-Wool]

Never had enough to stop spraying or shearing. Still dusty!!

 

[Devil's advocate]

Sorry lovely rain to the west of Barnsley, really soaked in.

Some really rubbish crops look a bit better, the odd good ones look great.

Both Windy and Ventusky are very good. Once you find your way around them you can flick between various running models. GFS, ECMWF, ICON, AROME, etc. Every other forecast derives from one of these. I often have people tell me the BBC is more accurate than XC (cross country). One uses GFS as the default, the other ECMWF as as the base. There's no black magic to it!
