Andy Bown Yeah, I’ve got two loads of washing waiting to go on the line. Hoping for an improvement later. At least with the wind it should dry out quickly.
Absolute shocker of a day here. It’s hardly stopped raining since the start of the day. 2 batches of thundery activity in the past 24 hours.
I do wonder with the amount of rain that’s fallen if a yellow warning could have been issued. Causing issues on the railways and doubtless on the roads too.

*Stormforce~beka* Totally agree. Like so many things, they mess with the recipe and they are never the same. I miss Ricicles which were dropped because ‘they contained too much sugar’. Doesn’t most things?
Well certainly no chance of getting any washing dry outside today. Miserable day out there. Glad I did it all yesterday now, wasn’t planning to though. The appearance of the sun persuaded me and I’m so glad it did.
*Stormforce~beka* Given the right conditions yes. Best of course is sunshine, bit of breeze and low humidity. The latter plays a big part on a cold but sunny day. It can be surprising just how quickly washing will dry given dry air even if the temp is only a few degrees.
Generally it takes a lot longer in the winter as you’d expect and you need to finish drying in the house in the evening.

Yup, two days ago it looked like today was down for stone grey cloud, yesterday it changed to light cloud and this morning full sunshine. It actually felt pleasantly warm in the sun around early afternoon. Beautiful day.
Agree with both Alderc and Andy as there were some very strong winds at times last night. I can only guess we weren't under the yellow warning as the worst of the winds were in the middle of the night?
Just popped into the MOD thread and almost got hit by a passing tumbleweed. Says all you need to know about future winter prospects.
I’ll just be happy for dry weather now. Passed caring about seeing snow now.
