We're a good few miles apart but the rain woke me some time during the night too. Awful sleety showers this morning. We're finding it hard to shake off the winter.
We'll have to update the old saying to 'March coming in like a lion and April going out like a lamb'. (Hopefully!)
back to square one here today.cows back in and they not even a sound out of them.wind skinning from the devils bit.they stood under the ditch all nite and ploughed it.must not be the only one that woke up at 3am and it lashing.
The next 7ish days are promised dry and windy here, land is as wet as it would be in January
horrific cold wind this morning i was out at 7 to look at a little hogget that lambed, would cut you in two. things supposed to be picking up from today onwards, no rain forecast in east midlands for ten days out.
Strong wind all day, some heavy showers with hail stones. They usually last about 5 minutes but they were heavy. Sun is out other than that.
yea like others was freezing this morn. Couple of very heavy downpours and then the sun comes back out. But that nw wind would absolutely skin u
Same as that
2 degrees this morning, here in Kildare,sunshine, rain and hailstones today with continuous cold wind,
Not a good morning for my gas to go out. Woke up shivering.
At least it is mostly sunny and mostly dry but it was a nice morning for the first of March.
some desperate showers overnight here in the north west again, roads covered in puddles. So much for very little rain over the next 5-10 days according to the weather apps.
At least the wind is gone today if that's a positive bloody freezing yesterday
Day 1 of the big drought of 2024
whoever is the first looking for rain should be banned from boards for life
and possibly a farming ban too for life
GFS Charts starting to show snow for the end of the month…..😥
Get out
**** enough morning
yep
weather was wet and cold in Dublin earlier but alright at home. Sunny and windy. Still raw though and no great grass growth
Heavy showers and cold breeze again this evening in Kildare
Today was cold, breezy, with heavy downpours interspersed with sunny warm spells. The six calves were tucked up in the creep feeder again tonight - one jumped up and ran out when I tried to take the photo. I'm going to add some calf crunch into the feeder trough tomorrow.
Cow photo bombing in the corner
Another soaking morning in monaghan. Plenty of rain with small sun this few days.
This settled weekend is showing no signs of coming yet
Met Éireann have really angered a lot of lads around here promising this good weather the last 3 weeks. Should have said nothing when they clearly had no idea if or when good weather was coming. Looks like at best we might get 2/3 semi dry days this weekend now and so far this week hasn’t stopped raining long enough here for the concrete to dry let alone make any difference to land.
The only weather forecasts i usually watch are the English met office on YouTube, they have got the forecast for this week spot on so far, they do a ten day trend forecast on a Wednesday or Thursday every week which is usually pretty accurate. You’d want to be badly stuck to listen to the like of clueless spoofers like Joanne Donnelly for anything resembling a reliable forecast. Met Eireann is full of lazy incompetent people who couldn’t give a fiddlers.
Plus 1
Smashing spring day. Out fencing again. Around 15°C
Beautiful day on the barrow near vicarstown
