 Alderc 2.0 My patio is flooded

[MP-R]

Not to rub it in, but it’s become a lovely afternoon here.

[Andy Bown]

 MP-R it has here too, finally and thankfully! The last of the rain stopped at about 12.00 then frontal cloud finally departed the sun about 13.30! 

[Dorsetbred]

The last remnant remains but I can see some thinner cloud to the NW

It has now stopped raining here.

 Bristawl Si  Andy Bown  MP-R  Ok NOW I seriously get the feeling you Northerners are rubbing this in!!

[jtay]

 Dorsetbred Count us in too on the Sunshine front, so you'll get yours soon enough.

Sun just starting to come out here after a rather miserable day so far. Certainly wetter than I thought it was going to be.

Yes our glorious country lane aptly called Flood Lane is in fine form not only flowing strongly but for added fun filling the numerous potholes with water making driving a real lottery.Will be advising mate alternative route driving in the dark for Thursdays pub visit.For additional excitement round the corner there's about 80 metres of lake/lane that's over a foot deep.

 jy We only have one way out of the village now, by The Stag. Our end is a no go zone, except for the most naive delivery driver.

Good job your pub visit is Thursday as the suggestion is this is lining up for Friday

Oh and Saturday

Lets not forget Sunday

 

Tiz over a week away but look, not a drop of rain!

We might sneak a dry day or two today and tomorrow before things do down hill in time for the weekend - wouldn’t be surprised to see some of the actual weather turn out like yesterday given what’s being modelled currently. 

[MP-R]

Was foggy first thing but lovely and sunny now.

[Andy Bown]

Big differences locally this morning.
 

Warminster is crystal clear and sunny. Westbury is misty. Trowbridge is freezing and foggy! 

[jtay]

Beautiful outside. Just put the seedlings out on the patio to soak up the Sun.

[Bristawl Si]
