    Pelting snow here. With the forecast I got yesterday looks like things won't get any better over the coming week with a lot of rain promised

    Could hear rumbling from around 2.30 Was checking NW storm radar for the lightning strikes. Showed 3 in a line from Clon north through Coppeen. One wicked flash at 3.00 with thunder right down on top of it.

    Sun's out.
    Cows out.

    According to Met Eireann I should be washed out of it by now.

    For anyone depending on the weather and working outdoors and that's probably everyone here.
    This is the most dependable forecast for precipitation.
    I think anyway.
    It's the French weather model APERGE on the weather outlook website.

    1st time looking at this thread in about 2wks. Similar time since I've read any sort of weather forecast. I've had an earful from my dad about it apparently pissing down over the next week, so when I saw that you had posted here I thought I might take a mosey and see what you had said about it all, and as I half expected it was to say you didn't really have a clue hahaha. That all sums up how much I care about the weather forecast 2bh, I take it hour by hour, if the cows have their heads down and are grazing without ploughing up the place they are out, if they are standing at the gap or arses to tje the wind they come back in.

    Still no rain here and I hope it stays away till September.:D
    It's nearly like a summer's day here.
    Spreading dairy washings atm here and ground conditions are good.

    Talking to a fella in the local ag store yesterday and he was saying it's shocking bad weather as oul fellas do.
    I said there was great drying out yesterday and no rain and I had the cows out yesterday.
    "Oh it's going to be flooded out tomorrow.
    Shocking weather."

    Still a lot of people around me have cows in fulltime. I'm in the minority.
    I think some people love misery.

    I got one or two idiot heifers ploughing through any fence around them, milkers all took a 10min spin around a paddock that is never fit for grazing early, and Phuck me they ploughed it up in the 10mins it took me to get them outa it. If my whole farm was like that field I'd prb plant the place!
