@Kirkcaldy Weather can you imagine it? This type of set-up in winter could be an absolute classic for snow. Negative tilt with the fronts sitting NW-SE. Cold air from the east or south-east. BOOM! Someone is digging in the morning, and the afternoon:

When I saw this chart earlier all I could think was snow but then it's 10C too warm and two or three months too early. Having said that this is also the type of set-up which would happily dump super chilled 1C rain on you all day too.

Aye could have been a cracking snowfall event for many of us, hopefully next month and beyond the snowfall events keep coming one after another for us. :oldgrin:

@Mr Frost well done on the pics, I thought it could be you but I am not as good at stalking unlike @Kirkcaldy Weather has proved himself.

Not directly weather related, but may have a  seasonal relevance.

Perhaps @Northernlights can comment.

This white stuff has been applied to the former barley field ( harvested 10 days ago or so) on several days over the past week. It blows into my garden.

Lime?

Don"t see much liquid lime being applied in my neck of the woods but know it exists and as this is a liquid tanker it must be assumed that it is liquid lime.Think it acts faster in the soil especially as the soil temperature falls so they will probably plant a crop in this field fairly soon

Got out of bed... Looked out of window... Got back into bed, might just stay here. 

I'm not even under main band of rain either, some of you look as if your beds might be floating by now.

Yep, if I wasn't on top of a hill I think I'd be floating down the Tweed by now!

My old labrador simply wouldnt go outside if it was raining, even had to build him a shelter for him to do his business on a rain day.. snaw on the other hand he would be out all day.

Clyde will go walking in any weather at all but he can hold a pee for about 16 hours so refuses to go out before bedtime if it's even a drizzle. Fergus on the other hand will go outside any time any weather but he's a spaniel so he's insane. They're MrsC's dogs, I don't really like dogs (apart from Clyde lol).

LOL

I ventured outside (the door-step anyway) earlier this morning in the rain. There was a rabbit in the garden. However, even after pointing out to my spaniel, Jess, 'BUNNY' she sort of rolled her eyes and trotted back inside.:oldlaugh:

Disagree with Catch's opinion about spaniels. Jess is an exceptional companion, very sensitive and well-trained - mind you, it drained about 5 years of the owner's patience.

Lovely rainbow earlier.

Just relaxing with a glass (or two) of wine after a very wet weekend. My wife has been researching her family tree and dragged me off to West Lothian yesterday to look around graveyards for her ancestors. Got absolutely soaked. She did find one great grandad's grave that she hadn't identified in West Calder who was run over by a train while working as station master there. Turned out he was one of six of her family who were killed by trains and the only one who actually worked on the railways. Another, just a few miles away in Mid Calder decided to take a short cut home from the pub along the rail track but forgot about the late night mail train. Oops. 

Overnighted but as it was still  pishing down this morning crossed to Dysart in Fife where her mum was brought up. Even wetter there so home it was. Took some pics but nothing of weather note.

I'm from Fort William lived here all my life and when someone from Fort William says that's heavy rain you know it would be counted as Biblical event elsewhere, absolutely stotting down big lumps !

Yeah, sun finally put in an appearance this afternoon , after a run of wet or at least grey conditions since the end of last week. It's probably not actually any warmer outside, but psychologically it 'feels' warmer cos your looking out at sun rather than miserable grey and rain.

I'm in Heriot - can you remember the name of the house? We've got a lot of big houses here, inc Bowes-Lyons. *looks posh*

i can go back on it and have a look.. this one was right at the top of hills and totally on its own, 11acres and had a tennis court in the grounds and a river close by. white outside walls had a centre entrance door and the property split off to the left and the right. a 1930's build so they said.
