    And the scorching weather we're supposed to get is apparently just a rumour and we're actually going to get absolutely pissed on for the summer! I think this is quite a general thread, hence not posting it in Weather.

    I'd love some rain, poor auld Ruu is sweating it out in central Illinois. Heading into 30Cees for the next few days and the old pasty skin won't hold up for long. :(

    Darn straight. Haven't you noticed a direct correlation between the factors you mention and the increased rainfall?

    I'm one soggy monkey... Had to walk home form work half an hour ago...

    Thunder and Lightening too....

    I'm looking after my nephews rabbit this week so I'll have to chase it around the garden in the rain now to get it back in it's hutch...


    (Oh and the Sky EPG seems to have been updated, so it may not have been the weathers fault)

    It was a straight downpour though.

    Which makes a change . It's usually side on, with wind whipping against your face, while waiting at a Bus Stop.

    We should all be grateful

    Depends on your definition of good. Mine would be low twenties and sunny but with some cloud coverage, so that there isn't a mother****er of a blazing sun scorching you into the ground - like a couple of weeks ago. Now that, to me, was bad weather.

    I left Limerick this evening at 5pm heading for Dublin. I got a 40 minute window of no rain in the midlands. It was muck for the rest of the time.

    About 1 in 10 drivers were driving without any lights on either. Really dangerous.

    Who where the worst offenders? Mr White Van Man.....

    How about unreal as in sextants and tea pots will be falling from the sky during the month of July? That would be pretty unreal.

    Thank god for €4 umbrellas in Pennies!

    But yeah, the rain sucks. As strange as it sounds, I'd rather be wet than roasting though.
