It's this day week since we'd rain here. Some difference in ground conditions. Yesterday in particular with sun and breeze there was serious drying.

Unreal drying in the week, I was able to get in and out of the fields with the van and trailer full of branches, wouldn't have dreamt of it last week

Keepgrowing

Savage weather here. Was in Central Europe from Sun to Wed pm absolutely biblical rain at times. Ploughs and beet harvesters only rolling Wed evening. Thousands of acres of combine maize still to be cut

Slurry pipe guy here yesterday and till lunch today, emptied last of lagoon slurry. Savage out put averaging 25000 gallons per hour, even counting rolling and unrolling pipe.

Super day in west Clare sun and drying. Cattle stretched out in the sun like July. I didn't have the heart to shove them in the crush for dosing.

Working in Dublin city centre again all this week and saw the first few drops of rain today at lunchtime when leaving.

Mind you there was a cool blustery wind for a couple of the days.

Nice pleasant evening here now at the foot of Slievenamon.

Seen today accuweather are giving severe downpours from the end of this month and the rest of winter will be wet and stormy.
Any wonder heads are fcuking melted with weather predictions.

That Cranium lad is a waste of space, I kept a fairly close eye on his forecasts all summer, he kept forecasting improved weather in a week or two, all summer which very rarely arrived.
Met Éireann and the Met office in England can give decent forecasts for a week ahead if you're lucky, looking at forecasts any further ahead than is a waste of time imo.

I could see it turning very dark over in Cavan alright, thought it would hit us but no. Rained on-off all night but nothing too heavy at all.

Mooooo

Calm here in Cork and dry. Let cows onto the heavy ground. Half regretting it now as they are doing a bit of poaching but if I don't get some grass off it now it'll be next April with heavier covers and less hungry cows. The extra few days down there may give me some leeway to keep me out that bit longer

Same here, 4 days grazing heavier ground with a bit of damage ahead but much more rain and it would have to be grazed by calves or sheep.

Another 4-5 days of heavy ground left to graze but I can't see it being grazed this year if we get much more rain.

I'll be putting autumn yearlings into the rest of it fri I'd say, access isn't great so ill give the cows what they can get tho handy and pull em out then. Rest of our heavier ground has much better access and drainage is a bit better so should manage that with the wire and on /off once we don't get a lot of rain

More rain last night, better get my arse in gear and finish powerwashing cubicle sheds as cows could be coming in soon
