Same here on Dartmoor Steve.
We walk on Sundays and some Sundays have been wet with the preceeding
Saturday dry and sunny. Today was dry though but the rivers were high and
noisy.

Yes, this has been true down 'ere too.

We go for a big walk every weekend (unless it's hot, then we head for
the beach), and we try and pick the best weather day and so far this
autumn we have walked only one the Saturdays.

I've just looked back at my records and so far (since 1st Sep), the
Saturdays have been the best day and all have been quite sunny. But most
importantly, dry.

Sunny autumn Saturdays:
1st Sep = 5.8 hours
8th Sep = 5.4 hours
15th Sep = 7.2 hours
22nd Sep = 8.3 hours
29th Sep = 9.2 hours
6th Oct = 8.9 hours
Average = 7.5 hours (62% of the total possible).

Yesterday we walked out onto the high moor (Dartmoor) and it was a
gloriously sunny day, though it was very wet and boggy in places and the
streams were in spate.

Sun shone today, but it clouded over this afternoon (max of 15.6°C).

Hoping it continues as I've got an outdoor event next Saturday.
In fact if all rain can fall between sunset and midnight during
weekdays, that would be nice :-)

The last three days have brought home the vagaries of the northwestern
European autumn, lovely when the sun shines (Saturday in particular,
Sunday to some extent) but unbelievably depressing when the weather's
poor (this morning)

Just got back from a long weekend abroad.
First to the Midlands and then on to the arid east.
Threw it down most nights but lovely sunny chilly autumn days.
Did not look very arid to me. Standing water on some of the parkland
fields in Cambs and N. Essex.
Wimpole Hall, Anglesey Abbey, and Audley End.

Back in Devon now in coast fog and drizzle.
Well, you can't have it all.

Nice? It would revolutionise the world - and for the better.
Bring it on!
