It's Been Raining Fairly Heavily All Morning Here In Belfast. This Is The First Downpour In A While...

[sandyRoe]

...are other areas of the UK experiencing unseasonable rain?

[suechu]

Yes, lots, have you not been reading the news Sandy? Here in Northampton it's either raining or just about to. Depressing as hell. Sounds like you've been getting away with it in Belfast for a while though?

[Tilly2]

Sandy, you either have your tongue firmly in your cheek or your head firmly in the sand.:-)

[Baldric]

Do try and keep up sandy.

[suechu]

Sandy, 'fess up now.

Blowing a gale here, but no rain at the moment.

[sandyRoe]

There really hasn't been that much rain here. I've managed to get the wee dog out for its regular three walks a day without any problems. Looks as though it'll be suffering from cabin fever today, though.

[RSDonovan]

No it's been as dry as a bone on the mainland. Perhaps you could pipe us some of your rain to avoid us having a hosepipe ban invoked? I believe that Somerset and the Thames Valley would be especially grateful.

[ummmm]

I'm in Northampton too, the rain is on and off, it certainly looks like it wants to chuck it down.

Just started pouring (again) here on SE Hampshire coast.

[welshtanner]

Blowing a gale and lashing it down in my part of North Wales.

[rockyracoon]

Not much rain as yet but the sky is quite dark, there's a terrible hooley blowing though, half the streets litter has landed on my lawn :(

[suechu]

lovely, eh, ummmm, just waiting for thebedford road to flood AGAIN and i shan't be able to get to work

[EcclesCake]

More lentils for lunch Rocky?

It is blowing a gale and hammering down here:-(

[suechu]

love 'hooley', rocky, very descriptive

[suechu]

... hope no damage done?

[pips1]

I am in one of the worst places in the country apparently as we have even made the National News. It is raining all the time here in Worcestershire.

[ummmm]

Good luck with that, suechu, it looks like it's starting now...

[andy-hughes]

Here is Stoke - North Staffordshire - it is pelting down, and there is a savage wind.

Alreay seen two smashed brollies in the road!

[chrissa1]

It hasn't reached here yet. God bless, Northumberland.

[Baldric]

N/Kent, dry,
we've had a bit of sunshine but wind is now picking up,
not cold though, yet!
