A thought: If we had sunless days from now until Xmas we would still have
above average sunshine amounts for the year 2003. Pennine reservoirs are at very low levels - if the rain does not come soon we will have drought restrictions in place too. Fields were like dust bowls when I went for a walk in the Aire Valley yesterday. Rob Farsley |

Rob Farsley The dry spell is getting quite severe around here now - just 12mm rain in this part of Norfolk since the end of July. The farmer next door was ploughing the field last week (the one you can see on the camera at www.ivy-house.net) and he may as well have been ploughing the beach - it's just sandy dust. A good gale could whip up some major dust storms with the autumn fields now bare soil (dust). -- Chris www.ivy-house.net |

Oh Lordy! Better not put the washing out that day then - hopefully those troughs will trigger some showers to damp it down. This is the best time of year for sunrises on the camera - it's been offline a couple of times recently; I'm rewiring part of the house and I sometimes forget to switch the camera on again after I've turned the power back on. There have been some excellent displays of contrails caught by the rising sun. The transatlantic redeye flights are bumper to bumper (well, the aircraft equivalent anyway) on UL603 around sunrise; on their way into Amsterdam and Brussels. I can dig some of them out of the harddisk if anyones interested. -- Chris www.ivy-house.net |
