You can’t be too far from me I’d say Moo... I was surprised to see you say you needed a few dry days for reseeding - did ye not get a good week there end of last week start of this week?

I see a bit of reseeding done around here, and a small bit of spring barley cut...

Had 2 days managed to bale a bit of ground, had some bit every night. It's heavy ground so need a to dry out or you make a mess of it. Did a load of drainage in it last year and a wet patch after appearing along the bank of the open drain near the back of it ......

Ground in absolute shyte down here by bantry after last few days... We be measuring rain in inches rather than mm... Last 10 days we had the sunshine but then 2/3 inches rain then sunshine then another 3 or 4 inches rain... Then yest morning yet another cloud burst ... Its August and I'm seeing which field I have to sacrafice next as cattle making absolute **** of them no matter which field they in.... But they will have to go in if this weather keeps up

Just dug some spuds today in the garden and amazingly the ground is bone dry here. Like powder. We've had very little rain this summer. All the heavy showers seem to have avoided us. The streams are dry or very low. East Wicklow.

Yeah tis turning out a fair miserable August and a very early winter if it doesn't clear up soon.
Welcome to climate change..

First rain today for ten days, second cut bales made and slurry tanks emptied. Dry weather came in the nick of time around here, some amount of silage saved this week.
A wet week and ground will be soft again tho.

It was drizzly most of the day here, dry with the last hour. We went to visit relations just outside Cork city this morning and it started raining just before the county bounds and got heavier as far as the city and eased off again. Same again on the way home. Ground is wet but only the first inch or so here.

Cork is getting more than its fair share this last few weeks though.

Tis ok.
Waterford and Wexford twill take your load.

You can thank us later.

Not sure how true this is.

But I've heard that the gates are being locked on caravan parks in Rosslare.
They're letting no one in but they're letting no one out.
It'd be a bit ridiculous if people were forced to stay in their mobile homes with hurricane force winds forecasted.

I know met eireann haven't included Wexford but the others have and it's Waterford and Wexford are the two most effected counties by wind on them.

I hope everyone will be ok.
