No rain for us, wildfire north of us is growing but it was only 107 today. I hope we get some rain soon. Send us some. Thank You !

cheers, parsnip

At least it's not heavy rain. Try flash flooding. I am still in recovery.

Is it intermittent (good for plants) or is it a constant drizzle (bad for mood)?

I wish I could. Unbelievable; rain for over a week, IN JUNE.

Cro Magnon said...

It's already started, and it's drizzle. Horrible.

Susan Heather said...

Looks like our forecast although our temps are 5 degrees lower

Maria said...

The positive side: plenty rain; plenty mushrooms.

I had a swim yesterday afternoon... I probably won't have another until mid-month.

Cro Magnon said...

Yesterday I gathered about three kilos of Girolles (Chanterelles)... today I must process them all. We SHALL have winter omelets.

Sue said...

A bit depressing isn't it, but at least it's warm.

New World said...

Light rain is it then?

Cro Magnon said...

I'm just back from my early dog walk; not too wet, but humid. Looks like I shall be painting a lot.

Cro Magnon said...

Unless they're wrong; which they usually are.

If it is like here, the light rain does not eventuate. They are covering themselves, just in case.

Yael said...

I wish we have some rain here, i like it.

New World said...

We've got drizzle.

Mushrooms and a well watered garden, you can relax now, but not around the pool!

Tom Stephenson said...

I predict light rain.

We are used to this... hailing from Leeds... the Pentens stop the brunt [sorry Mancunians].... but the drizzle gets over those moorland hills....

But this is why it is called Flaming June.... "flaming" as in politely swearing.... it is always either cold and mizzley.... or you can't work or water enough.... because it is too damned hot!!
It never is gentle until July!!

gz said...

I seem to remember flamin' June...followed by flamin'July last year....

Cro Magnon said...

I've just had a look at today's forecast; they suggest storms, sunshine, and rain. Yup, that covers just about everything.

Cro Magnon said...

I like heavy rain that comes down for an hour maybe; this 'Light Rain' is simply a nuisance.

Cro Magnon said...

I can hear the weeds growing as I write; that'll be the next big job.

Cro Magnon said...

Just when those in the know are changing their minds!

Cro Magnon said...

This year it's flamin' awful.

Cro Magnon said...

If it isn't warm in July I might as well throw in the towel, and move to Barnsley.

The Weaver of Grass said...

Just the same here so far Cro - it is always the same - the weather breaks just when we need rain and we are overjoyed. Then it takes a long time to settle down again.

Cro Magnon said...

It's actually sunny and warm here now... How can you trust these forecasters?

Starting Over, Accepting Changes - Maybe said...

We have had three weeks of rain and more in the forecast. We seem to all be in the same boat, and it is leaking.

Cro Magnon said...

Oh dear.... We'll have to all start singing.

Cro Magnon said...

Do try not to be a complete arsehole Chloe; the mushrooms are on my own land!

Doc said...

It has been unseasonably dry here until yesterday evening, now the June weather we know has started. If we all are going to sing, let’s at least make it cheerful.

Cro Magnon said...

'Singing in the Sun' would be preferable to 'Singing in the Rain'!

Maria said...

That has just brought back a school memory. I once had to write an essay as a punishement for talking and not paying attention in class: "describe the noise the grass makes when it grows"

Charles said...

Come to Somerset my dear. ‘‘Tis blazing sun here, hot on both bank holidays, which some believe is a mystical portent. What’s more the local supermarket is dumping Peroni for £9 a case as opposed to the more normal £23. I have only bought 6 today but my stepson wants some so I had better get some more.

Le Pré de la Forge said...

The beers better and there is good white wine to be had from the local vineyard in Leeds

Le Pré de la Forge said...

The "forecasters" are a couple of huge "Kray" computers in the States.... AI is better left to cattle breeders.... not computers!

Cro Magnon said...

You'd do well to buy every case they have, and sell at your local market for £15 per case, in a week's time.

I once had to cut cricket pitch grass with nail scissors.
