When is it going to rain?

Day Lewin

I'm getting hot and bothered, and my garden is as dry as an old newspaper, brown and flaking.

Reservoirs low, canals shrinking, rivers down to a trickle.

Can this be our own dear damp island in July?

Need some rain!

PS If anyone knows how to do a rain-dance, I'll join in.

Huh! I remember walking into Salthill from the town one day in the summer of 1995, there was a clock up on the wall that also gave the temperature it was 34 Degrees :eek:

The clock on the wall was telling lies as the 1887 record of 33.3 has never been broken.

I wonder how accurate that 1887 record is?

Looks like they've been getting all of our rain in Japan

Since Thursday parts of western Japan have received three times the usual rainfall for the whole of July, setting off floods and landslides.

:eek:

You mustn’t remember the summer of 1995 then so.

Why is everyone forgetting 1984 no rain from April to September.

....but when people give out about the infrastructure not being suitable for this kinda weather the answer invariably is 'ah shure we don't need to be prepared for this cause it never really happens'?

Can't wait for the weather segment for the 2018 Reeling in the years episode. From storms too snow too heatwave. I wonder what song will be played over it ???

AllForIt

I can't recall an August as bad as this for a long time. Then again my memory isn't very good. Horrible day here in the west today and and we've had more than a few of those already this month. Disgusted. Oh and a storm is on the way for the weekend. And to think ppl perfer this just so they can water their plants???

Don't worry about the music. You've to worry about what'll be on when the music stops. It may not have happened yet.
