I feel like a right idiot sitting here waiting for the date when Glastir lets us cut, wasting the few days of weather everyone else around here made use of.
Wettest July on record is it ? f**king ell, come back drought, all is forgiven.......

I love the hull accent. My friend lives in Brunei, and was hiking up a mountain when he met two passes from hull. My child, who loves lord of the rings, got him to record them saying "oh no, Frodo, there's snow on the road to Mordor". Was ace. Presumably they would need to take plenty of Kerka Kerla to drink. And elven bread.

It said dry here today last Friday. Then it forecast heavy rain, but we only got a few spots. Very close and humid though.

We always have different weather to many parts of the country due to being close to Europe and the Channel, however the last few months have been extraordinary and frustratingly weather forecasts have been completely inaccurate, even in short periods of time of 3 or 4 hours.
Having been so wet until early March and then continuously dry with short periods of high temperatures in April and May it has since the longest day become very cool with temperatures well below normal night and day. While it is damp, we have still not had any appreciable rain and grass growth is almost non existent.
Certainly not haymaking weather and much of what we have cut we have ended up wrapping.
We keep being promised a settled and warm period but it doesn't happen, can any of the great weather experts tell me when in the South east we will get some weather to make hay? We cut some last week and have now turned it 5 times and every day it gets damp again!!!!

I don't understand how the weather forecasts are continually inaccurate yet they have to answer to no-one . 20 yrs ago it was far more accurate . The BBC are the worst .

Miserable day, July 28% down now on average for Sun according to our solar panels.
