Brought cattle in today, expected the same, almost disappointed no rain bar a light drizzle earlier

Rattle of thunder just now, here in Cavan.
The collie is under the sofa, and there's something falling that's almost snow...

Must have been something round these parts too as the cows were spooky as hell this evening bringing them in.
Half were in one field and came in. The other half in the different field came into the first field and were all gawking at something in the ditch and i could follow by their heads this thing was heading in the same direction as they were to the gate.
Then they took on their heels away from the gate back up the field. I saw something myself, some white thing float over the ditch (ball alien lightning weird stuff ??). Meanwhile they were at the farthest point from the gate now and me on foot.
A bit of calling and compliments to the cows and me walking through the gateway and on the lane in, finally convinced them that the coast was clear and that they could follow on.

Maybe it's your one with the negligee that you were dreaming about a couple of weeks ago

Could have been a barn owl either.
But didn't look like a bird. Like a white haze thing the size of a football moving over the ditch with no sound made from it at speed.
Had to make sure there wasn't a white thing behind the ditch or people with dogs on the other side. Not a sign.

It's snowing down here now too.

(If only cameras could see the same colours, frequencies, ranges as cows then...it'd be interesting).

It was a hoor of a day here with incessant rain and windy at times. It was warm too so you'd be sweating wearing the rain gear.

13 degrees at 6am. Daughter headed off on her bike then to see the sunrise. Oh to be young and carefree

Any swallows seen yet?

I know we say it too often nowadays but the climate has definitely changed......more rain falls in a 10 minute downpour now than you previously got in a days rain 20 years ago.

Land quite wet but at least they are giving it dry until Saturday. Last of ewes lambing here....was rough on the wee lambs last week when it piddled rain for a few days and nights.

The fog is clearing here now and it'll be a powerful day

Standard day's rain now seems to be an inch. That's what fell on Sunday in my area, according to Met's Athenry weather station measurement. Put back turnout for a week at least with me

''Coldies'' getting very giddy with the prospect of sleet and snow next week. There's a crowd I'll never understand. It seems so forced in winter nevermind first week of April. Last thing we need, hoping the forecast starts improving as we get closer.

Easterly breeze here today and it would skin you. I hate the East wind.

I love it, because it brings drying. 'Oul cow's days' look to be kicking in on time this year.
