Re: weird weather
Spare a thought for the asparagus pickers plothering around in the mud this week. They use a special pair of overboots but even so it is a horrid job.
Re: weird weather
yes a lot of campo work is hard ...
olive ... you remind me that the wild asparagus grows well after rain ... must go look for some ... but it's cold outside ... few days ago 27 on patio ...now lucky if we reach 10.

Hi,
Snow on the "hill" just up from us ...................... not doing the Cherry Blossom any favours.

All my best learning experiences start with a problem I need to solve.

Re: weird weather
Raining here like the end of the world has come. Wall-to-wall rain for the next five days. The lane will be flooded and hideous. Easter will be washed out. The farmers will be even more stressed about the ground being too wet to plant. Global warming? Right!
Re: weird weather
I can see from the radar that you're getting the bulk of the rain in Extremadura. We've had little here today although it's been very windy. Mainly sunny today but chilly.

Re: weird weather
Biblical rain yesterday and danger of the fords flooding the lane. Not complaining but the reservoirs are nearly full and some sunshine would be nice.
Re: weird weather
last 24 hours only 6.4mm ... but cold and cant see the mountains for heavy mist ... not a good week for visitors!

Re: weird weather
Keep your fingers crossed for the weekend. There could be a lot of rain.

I seem to remember in our discussion re drought and reducing agriculture and tourism for less stress on water resources

Re: weird weather
It’s been much the same all along the coast with a bit more inland. Competa had about 70mm. There could be the same amount again tomorrow if we are lucky. Warm and sunny again after that.

Re: weird weather
We’ve had 80mm and more to come.
Olive, you seem to be in the only dry place in Andalucia! Plenty of rain the other side of Granada. There should be plenty of new snow on the ski slopes. Avalanches next!

Re: weird weather
16 litros here. I empty the gauge at breakfast time. Local town was unusually only 15 . Both the town and the nearest village consistently et more rainfall due to their geography.
One delight is the rio Genil is raging and we can see a part of the lake returned.
