Hope your right

I have been using this app on the phone for a while for short rage forecast as it has the rainfall radar updated ever 15 min or so, so depending on wind speed I can see the rain coming with up to a 2 hour warning, or if its raining

see when it might end or not as the case may be.

Better day today, not as much rain and the clammy heat has finally gone. Windy outside now.

These sayings originated in England, not sure how apt they are here. Local contractor says that a wet and windy May fills the barns with sh11t.:D

all the blossom knocked off the cherries here but the apple blossom seems to have held on, hope it dosn't damage them too much, bad time for such a deluge.

Cold, wet (to put it mildly) and windy. Fields cutting up here.

Winter is here. You'd drown a duck out there. Cold & windy with it.

Reggie. · 07-05-2014 08:51AM

Damp but we will survive

whelan2 · 07-05-2014 08:52AM

GY A1 · 07-05-2014 08:55AM

is the weekend meant to be very wet

RedFormanFITA · 07-05-2014 09:36AM

Wet through the night, but dry now. Very overcast and windy, more like a day in January, oh that's right, we had good weather back in January, lol. Looks like this is here to stay for a while.

Dickie10 · 07-05-2014 09:43AM

there is a lot of evidence with climate research that weather patterns are becoming more "stuck" or longer lasting. its to do with sea ice melt in the Arctic and the slowing down f rossby waves of the jet stream. so that we are are going to get prolonged periods of drought/hot weather, rain/wind and cold/snow/ice there going to last for between 2 weeks and 2 months whereas before a period of weather in north atlantic would only last a week max before changing

td5man · 07-05-2014 09:46AM

Milked out · 07-05-2014 12:25PM

Ground is getting fairly soft again, this rain would want to be striking off soon

whitebriar · 07-05-2014 12:41PM

Pretty dry in East Wicklow so far,Sun and wind.
Can see a few small showers skirting in the distance. Tomorrow looks wet for this area and up the east for a change.

mahoney_j · 07-05-2014 01:10PM

Wet wet wet ,serious growth but getting cows to clean out paddocks is getting hard.forecast for next 5 days poor.need a settled spell to wrap a few paddocks

whitebriar · 07-05-2014 05:57PM

Lovely day today in East Wicklow.
Sunny and breezy,not one drop of rain and the temp reached 16.1c on my Davis recorder.
Ground in this neck of the woods is very dry.we were fencing today and driving stakes with the sledge ,you'd know the ground wasn't hard.

Tomorrow will be wet by the looks of things.

Oldtree · 07-05-2014 08:07PM

Spilling rain here. This is getting sickening as we've another 12 acres of grass to drill, paddocks to bale and silage ready to cut.

Looks down for the day

Yep a complete gang fcuk. At what point will we have to say quality over DM and just let the harvester in after the mower once you get a few dry hours. It's all fine closing paddocks but you need to get them cleared and back in the rotation or the wheels will come of the wagon nd then we'll know what a mess is.

lashing here too but it should be gone by early afternoon for most and the sw by mid morning.
Looks very unsettled for at least the next week with a few weather fronts like this morning followed by showery stuff.
