Happy we at least seem to be finally drying out here, with the added bonus that its a bit more seasonal. For snow to fall IMBY we need a cold NW or a WNW, thats when the marginality for here at least also comes into play. Baby steps but the cold air seems to be on the way what happens next is anyones guess.

Not even a drop of rain here today. Looking at the easterly element in the wind forecast I expect it will remain that way for here overnight as well. Dry and cloudy. Met forecast warnings been pretty accurate in my eyes. Enjoy the snow those that have it, great to see pictures of places I know pretty well covered in a good dump of snow. More photos please

Heard the thunder last night, think we caught the edge of the rain coming from the storm. July a total write off, same as everywhere else in the region. Noticed the same about the rainfall 3 times the average for here, has certainly felt like it. Polar opposite to the previous 6 weeks, you have to wonder what's going on. No middle ground this summer. One extreme to the other.

Further up the road from you in the M6 corridor nothing here either. Flooding in Kirkham and locally on the Fylde coast. Aside from a 10min shower sat night we've had no rain here since May 8/9th. We pull a small amount of water out of the local river (the Bela) at work to cool our machines here before returning it. I realise the EA have tightened up on these things but we have had a mail this morning warning us the river is now classed as critically low, if the flow doesn't improve over the next 48hrs the licence we have will be suspended until flows return to normal. Similar to home here with little or no rain since early May.

We are in the next to no rain area here as well. Saturdays storms all passed 4/5 miles to the west and last nights storms missed us to the east by the same kind of distance. Nothing here bar a 10 min shower on Saturday night. Really noticeable differences locally. Was playing golf yesterday in chorley and there were pools of water everywhere on the roads, the course was still bone dry and baked though. Looking like another dry week coming up. Enjoy it while it lasts if you are able.
