In your dreams.  Nothing on radar, but hopefully.

First measurable rain after 114 days - but we only managed 0.6mm between 02:30 and 04:00 this morning

Looks like it skirted us again - glad I watered last night and did not rely on the rain!

I thankfully ours was clean rain. Washed the car. Was funny in Albox this morning, the Spanish in coats and trousers the Brits in shorts. :laugh:

Lmj19, I am also in jeans, sox and boots as it was quite nippy up here this morning, although starting to warm up now the sun is breaking through.... :wink:

Roscoe, between Nov.4th - Nov.6th, I had 72ml plus f rain.  The plus is because th gauge had overflowed on 5th when I returned from hospital visit and it holds 55ml!

Is that snow on the mountains? It's too misty to see, Frankie anything with you?

frankie

No, thankfully, Roscoe.  I was in deep cloud yesterday until about mid day so not possible to see opposite until pm.  I could not see snow.  I also could not see any up towards the Sierras de Baza.   I have usually had a couple of nights of frost but the lowest has been about 8C.

Just checked the forecast for up here and heavy rain is on it's way on Thursday during the day and overnight into friday.  Then again on monday...
I think maybe I can put the hose away now...
