They sure are. Brought twenty odd yearling bulls back home from OH's out farm this afternoon. The ground would be considered dry and free draining. They have done well since they were moved there in the first week of Jan. Have them now on two fields of about 14 acres with access to a dry bedded shed.
When I checked them a few mins ago they were lying deep in straw and looking comfy.

We haven't had any rain worth talking about since Friday at 6pm. Tracking the met eireann radar and id say we're ten miles from where it hasn't stopped raining since yesterday morning.

Couple of hail showers, sleety showers, rain showers with watery sunshine between the showers. All the cattle back in and the stove is lit.

Lovely sunny morning here but Jesus Mary and Joseph ,you do not want to see the forecast for Munster south Leinster and Connaught for the rest of the weekend,2 to 3 inches of rain looks imminent
Very heavy rain with flooding,sleet and snow at times with snow sticking at times above 600ft or so inland :eek:
Whelan2 looks just about far enough to avoid the worst of this but the rest of us including my area is fcuked.

pedigree 6

I was looking at the met eireann forecast on the phone last night and it was mentioning rain turning to snow in the east and south and temps at night of minus 3. So I showed it to dad and his reply was "ah they're loosing the plot":).

Lashing here since 6 and it's on its way to the rest of ye!

This weather is all your fault, what were you thinking putting up that feckin ''green green grass'' photo a month ago, you jinxed the whole country:D

Aye,the picture is lightish rain today,showery tomorrow,some wintry butSunday into Monday is the hellish day with that 2 or 3 inches of rain and sleet with snow on hills which will get a covering
The northern extent of it is unsure yet,the northeast might escape the worst but down south Leinster,Munster and Connaught is where the biblical rain sleet and snow will be
It's all thanks to what's called an omega block up near Greenland kinking the jet stream south of Ireland and fast tracking very cold air west of Greenland down to us
Meanwhile a low pressure and its fronts tries to push north towards us,meets the cold air and explodes into very heavy rain as the warm and cold colliding enhances rain
We are on the borders of the two air masses so the northern edge of this is going to engage with enough cold to bring the high ground snow
If this was January,a set up like this would bury us all in the white stuff but longer days and stronger sun at this time of the year will limit snow to height
All in all a very unpleasant spell awaits

Saw my first Swallows today, they paid a brief visit before doing a swift U-turn and headed back to North Africa

Had a Cow like that and put a pair of shackles on her. Had them on for 3 months and now she's flying. She had a habit of throwing one leg way too far forward. Weather is terrible in cork not looking forward to putting cows into reseed at start of 2nd rotation Monday.
