2022 - How's Your Weather Today?

We were promised heavy thunder storms, in reality there was rain to the east and off to the west with a distinct dry corridor vertically through Salisbury. We might have got 2mm overnight not enough to even wet the baby's forehead. I'll probably be watering again at this rate. ATM it's dry, still and a little sun breaking through the white cloud and 19°C

Should have read this first!! ...  

...it wasn't huge amounts but more than we have had in months here.

Not a lot of water in the butt's unfortunately, I'm crossing my fingers for more in the week.  At least Wessex Water don't have a hosepipe ban, nor any plans for one.

I'm on a meter so even without a hose pipe ban I don't generally use it other than to water in new seedlings.  I have watered the dahlias about 4 times since planted up because I would have lost them other wise.
