Rain at last 😄

I got soaked on my walk here in North Wales. About 5 minutes of heavy rain. I didn't mind. Pleased to see it.

S E Essex we have had zero rain - our DD lives in our road, 5 minute walk she has had to close her windows as the rain was coming in 🤷‍♀️

It has rained steadily here in Stockport not poured as I would have liked for the garden but welcome all the same.

We had some overnight, and we've had a few showers this morning, a couple of which were very heavy indeed. At least Mr VV won't have to water the veg today then. Meanwhile, I've been busy in the kitchen pickling onions and some beetroot.

Here in S E Essex DD has had to shut her windows as the rain was coming in.

We live a five minute walk away, same road, not a drop 🤷‍♀️

Oops thought I had lost former post 🤦‍♀️

Nothing here is East Yorkshire despite being promised. Really disappointed.

We got yours in S Yorks. But it sounds like Manchester way got most of it! It hasn't been enough for the garden tho.

Quite a lot in north west wales but not sure how much as over night

We had some in the SW, not heavy but everything is so much fresher.
It's gettinng hot again now though.
Hope Cairngorms got some to damp down the fire.

Nowt here yet South Oxfordshire

A little rain in the early hours here in Perth. Much more needed.

Well I live in the same city as two people on Gransnet who both say they have had rain, but here we’ve had none. No evidence of it at all. I was out this morning picking blackberries and we had a teaspoonful and nothing since. Weirdly selective, this weather.

Woke up to quite heavy rain here in Cheshire. It brightened up a couple of hours ago and all traces of rain now gone.

Now that is bizarre Greyduster. My guess is I live quite high up to the western edge?

The other Gransnetter lives a few miles from me so I still don’t get it! I’m getting a persecution complex😂!

Oh dear, what have you done to deserve this 😳

We had a little ( very welcome ) rain last night and this morning. Enough to wet the flagstones, but not enough to do the garden any good, unfortunately.

We're in West Yorkshire, near the M62, just on the right side of the hill! ( Sorry, all Lancastrians! ).

It's still mizzling now, but I don't think it will amount to much. Still, it's much appreciated here!

It's not enough not to need to water pots tonight.

And there it was - gone!! Enough to wet the car and then away it went! Something I suppose.

It dries instantly tho as the sun comes out ☺️

I’m pretty sure there wasn’t any rain at all here in North Wiltshire. Looking at the BBC weather app which goes up to 8th August no rain is forecast. Scary now.

Absolutely lashing it down here in North Oldham ☔️☔️☔️

Teeny weeny amount overnight here in my part of Bristol; probably less than 1mm. It wet the road and pavements, then made the air very humid…. Not enjoyable.
I wish we had had the lashing rain of other parts of the country.

Quite heavy for 5 minutes this morning in North Essex. Just enough to leave dirt on the car and patio. No help to the garden though.
Now it's overcast and humid.

A little rain overnight in north Wiltshire, now sunny abd very windy
