Let a few springing cows out to my calving paddock. Love calving cows outside.

Wet evening here

We could do with rain . The ground is bone dry funny enough north of us have had plenty of showers etc, it’s like we have a micro climate thanks to galway bay and the burren.

Took mine all back in, much too wet and cold here to have freshly born calves out half the night.

Cold start this morning up until 11am, turned out a lovely evening, even let out a few cows, 1st week in April and letting out cows... what is this madness!

Glorious morning in SE Clare. Good for man and beast !

A dull misty day here

Sunny and calm here all day, field's are dry enough to let out cattle 3 weeks earlier than usual.
No rain of any consequence promised for the next 7 days, drought 2019!

I'm loving this weather. Almost as much as these!!
Prob pay for it when trying to get silage though....:(

Very frosty here early this morning. Put out fertiliser on silage ground. Cows had grazed it in January and again in March. Last spring we never got to graze it at all. Still a bit wet in places. Going to roll some of it in next few days

Dry and overcast here in Cavan.
7c but it feels cooler, or more likely I’m getting softer.

Cold and dry reminds me of the time the sugar beet was sown this type of harsh weather didn't suit it, it would cut it out of the ground .

SuperTortoise

Good dry week here in the NW, turned cold this evening, had to put the full winter clobber on.
Bit of a mixed bag for the next week i think.

Bitter cold here atm, strong dry easterly wind that would skin you. Rain forecast for here tomorrow which should ease the cold and get a bit of growth started again.

There's an Orange rainfall warning in place for Cork and Waterford tonight, folks, so be careful if you have to be driving tonight.

I spread bag manure this morning and didn't realise that there was a Orange weather alert for rain. Still dry here but brezzy.

Must get the radio fixed in the tractor!

Not at all. Spread 4 bags 2 weeks ago and have it grazed bare since and going to blacken it with slurry on Monday and cut in June. Not in teagasc manual but most of those boys have no land or clue.

Serious rain overnight and it remains fairly windy tbh. Grass growth gone back. Brings to mind the story of the old Brindle Cow who boasted that nothing the month of March could do - would harm her. So March borrowed into part of April - redoubled her fury and killed and skinned the poor old cow.

It's not so much here in the midlands, only 3mm overnight, are you in the west.
Temperatures are supposed to be 19 degrees by friday here and then we'll be worrying about controlling grass

You'd want to be careful doing that too with such a high quantity of fert
We had s cow here a few years ago found dead
The vet did a post mortem and found she'd eaten a lump of fertiliser

Dry so far here in south Wicklow, but going by the radar only by the skin of our teeth
At just 6c,that wind would cut you up

Raining here all night. Strong gusts of wind. Hopefully it stays raining for the day. Need every bit of it

Gawddawggonnit

Went to -4* last night. Huge risk of frost blast to wwheat and wbarley ears plus pod blast on wosr...

Old saying here that if it’s cold and dry today, we’re in for another 9mts of it! Lovely.

Dry and mild weather late single early double digits no wind. Need 50+mm rain soon.
