What's the weather like in your area 2

Regular showers today. We haven't had much all along though.

Another 15 ml night in about 15 minutes last night. While things are perfect in one way, we could do with another fine spell before the summer is out.

Past the longest day, no dry weather in the forecast, as I was saying while great weather in one way, another fine spell on July or August would be very welcome, even if only for the beach.

When I was a child my Grandparents would only be thinking about rearing/saving hay in July or early August.

If you are going to out and about on the farm in all types of weather do yourself a favour and buy a set of proper breathable rain gear. About 10 years ago I bought OH a set of Ranger pullups/overtrousers and parka coat. At the time the coat was €200 and the pullups were €150. He still uses them and is wearing them today. Greggcare in Donegal have the Kaiwaka brand. I have the Stormforce bib and you could stand in front of a powerhose and not get wet. The mens Stormforce parka is €320 and the overtrousers are €185. I know it sounds a lot but well worth the price in the long run and the material will does not rip on a piece of wire.
