When will it stop raining

[Old Tip]

Been raining virtually every day since mid July, it’s getting past a joke, they keep promising a dry spell but it never appears.

I for one am getting fed up, is there any hope

Its nearly the same here, maybe a bit better than you we get one good day , rarely two in a row. Monday wet everywhere, yesterday was not bad but back to square one today again.

This was the clear frosty day gathering my hill ewes for tupping a year ago.

The hill feels like it's been in the mist of the cloud and flooded since the end of June this year.

It poured all day here yesterday. Was better today but sleet and snow for tomorrow apparently! Ffs! Your are not the only 1 fed up.

I can't recall being quite so fed up of the weather. I was getting quite desperate for some rain after a very dry March , April and May.
Since the middle of June, there have only be a couple of windows when it has stopped raining long enough to get field work done and has never been dry.
Everything looks poor, the cattle have been in for far too long and the dung is mounting up already and it's only bloody November.
Hardly any hedges cut around here and with the pressure of so much else to get done should it stop raining, at least we will all look untidy together.
And the forecast for here..... another 4-5 inches spread evenly over the next 10 days.
My heart goes out to those who I know have had things worse.

Supposedly Talking to the In laws Kendal has had 50mm so far today and might get another 25mm before the day is out. I am sure they would be more than happy for you to have 70mm of it

Hard to think we are in the same country

Or county!!!

I've been keeping records for 6 years now. 2015 was the wettest with 2016 the second wettest.
2017 has now passed 2016 and only has another 12mm to go to beat '15.
Not much chance of less than 12 in the next fortnight.

 

[Neddy flanders]

Anglian Water resevoirs only 84% full.

 

[Wombat]

Our drains have been running for weeks. Steady at the moment but a few times at nearly full boar this autumn/winter

 

[Jackov Altraids]

I couldn't believe that reservoirs in the south west were only 80% full but you need to see a graph like this to appreciate the situation;

You could expect a significant drop from July through to November but this year levels have continually increased.

We are in for a fully dry week next year but I don't know which month it will be in tho and neither will the forecastors.!!!!

Especially as it has now reached 42mm for the week!
