Snowing in Morecambe

I was on Morecambe prom just after midday, as the winds peaked and the tide was at its highest. Crazy conditions not seen for many a year.

Yo Katie, thats a beautiful gift I hope they grow and produces nice big sunny flowers for you both

Heavy rain and 1 rumble of thunder Theres a hole (5ft deep) that some kids dug last year next to the golf club where I work. The water table is 1ft from the top, much more rain and flooding could be a problem, lets hope for a dry autumn. edit -we have lightning edit edit - more thunder and heavy rain just as I was typing the edit edit we have another thunder, but this time abit longer

Just had a thunderstorm lasting about 15 minutes with a few flashes of lightening and torrential rain . Hopefully it'll clear the air abit as its been really muggy the last few days.

Sounds like a horrid cold ya got there Wibs, hope u get well soon On the plus side, a blocked nose might be quite useful if you work with any1 with flatulence disclaimer - apologies to any1 Wibs works with, please dont ban me :lol:

Thanks for posting those Essan, great scenery , and looks like you did a good job on the re-ferb. I'm going to move somewhere like that when I win the lottery

Hi Wibs, thats really cool, bet you'll sell loads once word gets around if the 1's you've posted on here are owt to go by. Good luck and let us know how it goes.

Do you buy organic Pit? Im sure most farmers would prefer to go down the organic route, unfortuantly they carnt affotd to.

Had quite a good storm here this morning around 6.30 :lol: . Lasted about 10 mins.

A slight covering here this morning . Temp 0.1, Dew point 0.

Hi TWS, glad to hear that you're settling in ok, sounds like a good place. Good luck in your future studies , hope you get some decent thunderstorms aswell :lol:

Just been to work to check the rain gauge, it had 15mm in, which all fell in the last hour apart from a brief moderate shower this morning .

No Wibs, not silly you, silly them . Calm down people I found the link very intersting, so thank you for posting it

Hi Mondy, could it have been a heron? http://www.uksafari.com/greyherons.htm

Hi Great Plum, we have the same problem on the golf course at the moment. If the land is really wet i'd be tempted to leave mowing, as you could damage the soil structure, causing compaction and root break. The more leaf blade you can leave during winter, the happier the grass will be due to a larger area for photosyntesis. Maybe the upcoming cold spell will knock the growth back and you could wait till spring to mow? If you do mow, try to do it on a dry day, with a sharp mower and dont take more than a third of the leaf away. Being too aggressive might stress the grass causing bare patches and moss infestation.
