We have the very fine rain that soaks you threw today,wind has dropped and a very grey sky

by Dave 418 Wed Dec 28, 2022 11:27 pm

It was a cold damp walk this morning so we took the short route. Muttly certainly got a move on the way back. According to the weather forecast it’s supposed to be dry and bright if a bit chilly tomorrow so we will have a day out and a walk round the nature reserve at Whisby.

According to the forecast we have much more on the way from the south west today and tomorrow. Think we need to get out, we're starting to get cabin fever

Mrs A gave me some good news yesterday, you've got two numbers on the lottery, £30 she said. Oh wait, it's three numbers, £58. No, she said, I'm wrong, it's four numbers (now I was paying attention ) £198

As much as she tried she couldn't get it up to 5 or 6 numbers though

Well done Tony. 2 fish suppers then.

Teaming down all morning, lots of surface water on the roads, resulting in some minor shunts.

Gales here on Anglesey and it’s poured down for days. Fingers crossed it will be a little drier tomorrow, knee deep in dog towels!

by burlingtonboaby Thu Dec 29, 2022 4:59 pm

Dried up overnight,leaving a milder starlite morning,westerly breeze, nice walk with Tag back home via the old toon.
Have a good day, lots of dog towels to do here too AG, nice to see you back.

We did go out yesterday, and got soaked. It got worse into the evening with high winds and driving rain. The temperature is much the same at 6°c, it's still raining but the wind has dropped. We might get a brief respite later but we has a yellow weather warning from the early hours of tomorrow.

Take it easy up!

Back from Christmas in Devon, not a bad day at all here but too busy with other things to notice!
Goldfinches and bullfinches on the feeders today, great to see.
Have a great day all! allthumbz

Lunchtime view from MH here today, well Ranworth Broad anyway. Quite warm too, circa 9c

by Dave 418 Fri Dec 30, 2022 5:43 am

Lovely bright day if a bit chilly in the breeze. We made it to Whisby as planned but it was packed. We couldn’t get in the car park. We normally park at the back to overhang the grass but that bit was four deep so we went up to the view point at Scampton to have lunch and re think things.
It seemed a waste of a nice day to go home so we moved to Normanby Hall. It was busy but there was plenty of room on the grass car park. We had a walk round the grounds followed by a hot chocolate in the stable yard.

by burlingtonboaby Fri Dec 30, 2022 5:08 pm

Strong winds overnight drying the ground out,nice walk with Tag avoiding the wheelie bins.
Have a nice day.

Quite windy with lots of rain lashing against South facing side of house. Weather warning for rain in place until after lunchtime.

Been to Tesco and usual flooding blackspots in town centre starting to flood. Suppose only to be expected when most of town centre is built on what used to be Eastern end of Forfar loch rainyday

by Askit Fri Dec 30, 2022 7:58 pm

We're on the cusp of the two yellow weather warnings for today, it's dull, dark, dank and pouring down. Still 7°c but the forecast is suggesting a big drop to near freezing tonight.

Had to laugh at the news item last night, telling us about the unusual event of all the planets being in the sky and visible at the same time. What sky snigger

Where do they think the planets are normally I wonder?
Heavy rain and wind last night but drying up now, Sainsbury's was like a ghost town at 0730 this morning, wonder if that will last long as the usual panic buy starts because they are shut for one day. Plenty of everything on the shelves.
Have a great day all allthumbz

by Dave 418 Fri Dec 30, 2022 10:37 pm

Back to grey sky , gusty wind and drizzle. I think e picked the better day to go out yesterday.

by Bilbobaggins Sat Dec 31, 2022 7:51 pm

Still and frosty. Need to put salt on the drive as temperature not forecast to increase much. Chance of snow at lunchtime.

Have a good Hogmanay party019

by Askit Sat Dec 31, 2022 8:05 pm

Rain has cleared for now and it's 2°c. Still dull and cloudy so I guess there's a high potential for more of the wet stuff later.

We got informed by our council that bin collections would be a day later because of the holidays. So we didn't put ours out, and they came as normal yesterday confused3

Happy Hogmanay to all those sporting the kilt and all those that aren't!
Year is ending on a grey damp but still warm note in the SW Cornwall, light breeze and sporadic showers.
Forecast is not much different looking ahead.
Have a great day all. allthumbz

by burlingtonboaby Sat Dec 31, 2022 9:58 pm

Rained started at 3.30 ,just after I took Tag out for his ablutions, rained stopped around 8 followed by a thick coastal fog ( har/ fret), really dreich.
I'm to fat to get my Kilt on Gh, probably not bother with the bells this year.
Have a good day, hope 2023 turns out better.

Happy New Year,all the best for 2023, overnight rain cleared by 4, lots of surface rain water on the roads.
Nice walk with Tag, he was on the trail of something as with passed the allotments, carried on towards Sewerby.
Have a nice day.

Misty damp but no frost. Heard some fireworks just after 10pm but must have been asleep for the bells.

Lots of excitement near us last night which we followed on local faceb**k page, just after 7pm reports of sightings of a ferret in a street couple of hundred yards from us. Appeals for anyone who had list one. Half an hour later someone posted a photo of said ferret running into hedge. "Just grab it behind head and keep hold until owner turns up"...Aye right!. It was caught and put in a box about 20 minutes later. Next picture posted was happy young lad reunited with his pet. Better than the telly smile!

A guid new year tae ane an a'.

by Paulmold Sun Jan 01, 2023 8:43 pm

Torrential rain right through the night, the sound was louder than the fireworks (only one household somewhere close had a few), now stopped raining - no it hasn't, chucking it down again.
Happy New Year to one and all Happy_New_Year

by Askit Sun Jan 01, 2023 9:02 pm

Same weather as Bilbo, misty and damp. The gauge says 2°c but it feels much colder than that, there's sleety rain on the way so our traditional new year's day walk will have to wait. Lots of fireworks here starting about 8pm and going on until well after midnight. Some censored!

have worked out that you get a very loud bang when the fireworks are set off between two buildings twiddle_thumbs

A happy and peaceful New year to you and yours allthumbz
