  1. If you dredge the rivers , it gets water away in the drier summer months allowing the land to dry out , which in turn gives a greater area to soak up excess water in winter , problem in recent years is RSPB and other nature based organisations campaigning to keep water table higher in summer .so when it rains in winter it just sits on the surface or worse Just what they think happens to the badgers ,foxes and other small mammals in winter covered by an inland sea is beyond me . . .
  2. wow thunder and lightning at Emborough and very heavy rain showers , give the grass / shrubs a good drink , they were needing it .
  3. dont often get decent th-storms from the west or south on the western- mid mendips due to steep slopes around penhill and beyond ,they all slip along the bottom around shepton to frome or bruton the best ones come from the north or north west brewed in wales , same for snow fall .
  4. couldn't agree more , as someone who spends all day outside , I have stopped reading the spring discussion mod threads simply because , many that seem to be posting on there only tend to be looking at , is b+++y snow , days and days away on whatever model floats their boat (boring ) , the weather is interesting and enjoy informed discussion on all aspects of it, whether hot or cold it doesn't have to be a record to be of interest ,
  5. couldn't agree more , thousands of lambs have been lost in the last few days , crops arnt planted those that are are dying after the wet of winter , and times getting on , the massive increase in the cost of food come late summer , before we even think about heating fuel , might take the edge off any exciting weather event ,
  6. Roofs on all the sheep sheds dripping here , @ 750' up on the Mendips ,
  7. yep thanks , and have lambs out now , so while i dont mind a bit of snow i dont want extended cold weather either
  8. being a bit of a newbie with regard to maps , after this snow , why are some forecasts showing warmish air 5 - 7 c day and temps aroud 0c at night (bbc meto ,)by monday and others severe cold nights down to -10 c and not above freezing in the day for the foreseeable future ?
  9. , meto have 5 deg sat and 7 deg, sunday , and 3 or 4 at night , be like summer ,
  10. i know many on here like the cold and snow , but a warm melt day after a heavy fall is lovely ,
  11. you might be surprised ,your quite often quoted down the pub lol , keep up the good work , enjoying your weather station data
  12. argos in shepton selling sledges like their going out of fashion , lol, nearly told them not to bother yet , slushy A roads all up over the top , and fog setting in (warmer air ?)
