The ground is baked hard, may stop the spontaneous combustion of the foliage but most will spin off , heavy rain tends to fly off to our lower points ,to prove the point if your still allowed ..put the hose pipe like heavy rain would be and ten minutes, ..hour couple of hours most of it will now take your topsoil into neighbours garden once it becomes this hard it takes a fair bit over time ..not whoosh at once ,its like the opposite of getting blood out of a stone Penatration was word I was looking for

What honestly scares me most is ...we hope for a wet winter ..forget snow ..wet winter will be a god send,to the point we won't be moaning about cold rain, any rain will do ,but as weather people we know the polar vortex relies on temperature variation ..but what I hope is ,it doesn't tighten its belt further and further north so we say cor frost lovely but still dry as a bone ...like a man in the desert would say

Your going to get thousands of people with plastic bottles and watering cans knocking about your area soon Lol If they don't die of dehydration on M20 There be all little crosses soon like death Valley on the embankments

Gota fria eh ,its usually where he Costa blanca gets most of the rain it needs for the following year isn't it but my dads lived there 29 years and even they are tailing off ,so gawd knows where Madrid etc al get there's from

The UK Centre for Ecology and Hydrology has shown how much of the country is at risk of drought. East Anglia and Kent are showing the most severe category, “extremely dry”, and other home counties and Devon are ranked as “severely dry”.

This was Wrotham from the air yesterday ,too close to home ,think its the last straw for some

In that picture what struck me ...hope it didn't...:-)

Brilliant mate

Cor bet your melting mate hope having a great time ... i guessed you being you would have gone to the doldrums or there abouts lol ,I said long time ago my pond had dried out ,how deep the drieness was ,how it takes so much longer because of lag to get our selfs wet again ..its dire ,but surely people must see it coming ,we don't say on our thread its dry for a laugh or.its not gonna do this or that not like on run to run on model thread ..dry is dry, the deeper , the more scary ..honest

I'm sorry blessed ..I try to read backwards...honest..but when things get going for one reason or season or another ...you know what I mean .. hope you had a cracking break ..you know me ..I'm only half hearted

Last day where on holiday ?on netweather?in east anglia ?,on earth ?quick tip Venus is stifling,Mars take a cardigan:-)

Still raining in Sevenoaks,I came back through west Kingsdown on way home at say half five nothing ,shower over here hasn't really moved much ,really has a low level wind and upper level totally opposite earlier ...from Tonbridge 20220726_185944.mp4

Morning rain ,heavy evening shower ,truly extraordinary,bouncing it was ..anyone know why I send just audio when I'm try to send video ?? I'll send picture instead

Has anyone noticed that when it does rain ..here in Sevenoaks anyway on the road it looks like washing up liquid has been poured as cars drive through puddles ..soap suds appear it looks like ..I would have took pic but it dried to quickly

Can't remember last time I woke up to rain but it is

Dry as a bone ...

Satellite images show effects of East Anglia's driest year since 1996 WWW.EADT.CO.UK

But also shows our real ridiculous signs of lack of precipitation,its a SE corner affair ,let's hope it doesn't spread ,someone in say Oban Scotland wouldn't have a clue

Sorry mate never looked at the radar ,I was out dancing about in it like a kid ,jumping in the little puddles lol,WATER WATER ,is the the port traffic back to you yet ??

Just a band of cloud time it get over us i see,but it will swing in a different wind direction to make the temperature pleasant:-)

Well I'm saying i was stunned ..it did rain and for a while too,actually put window wipers on and got puddles and everything ,monsoon for us here ,but thats our lot for a while i guess and getting warmer and for a lot longer this time it says , not boiling.like 40c odd but a run at 25-30c ,and dry too And for once I was happy it was damp squib of a day
