Still acres of blue sky and still no rain
So, still acres of blue sky and still no rain. We missed out on the usually reliable early Spring showers in February and March and have had little or nothing since. With March temperatures in the mid twenties and now into the thirties, it’s been great swimming pool weather for months already, but now everything’s looking a bit burnt.
We’re lucky that we have plenty of pasture for our horses, as the grass is much more sparse than usual and the price of hay set to treble. But it looks like there are some serious thunder storms on the way – and in this part of the world when the heavens open, they do so properly with massive towers of cloud and spectacular lightning. Bring it on!
