Re: Is it ever going to stop raining?!?!?
 

yesterday evening after dinner it just came down vertically like the monsoons, lightening, thunder.
hasnt stoppped all night, thunder and lightening at about 5am with some more at 7.45
can't see the 1900m asl mountain above us, the cloud is like high fog in the streets

but there doesnt appear to be a speck of dust on the car parked outside on the road

oh well I still have the sangria left of the three
:cool:

There you are you see, every cloud has a silver lining.
No need to wash your car and just think what it must be doing for your olives.

Not been quite so bad here with just the odd shower from time to time, not really heavy and most of the time it's ok to be out and about.

Even caught a glimpse of the Sun yesterday and again this morning. :)

I reckon we've already had as much rain as the whole of last winter.

Re: Is it ever going to stop raining?!?!?
 

Look on the bright side, it could be worse, it could be snow. :blink:

Just think about all those poor sods living inland on the high ground, probably much of the population, who get it much of the Winter.:ohmy:

That's much what a Spanish friend was telling me in an e-mail yesterday. And then he asks when when are we coming out!;)

You must have forgot to read the small print. :cool:


Apart from tomorrow which looks half decent, rain is forcast here for the next ten days !

Re: Is it ever going to stop raining?!?!?
 

It must be moving up from here then, after today there is only sun on the 5 day forecast - thank goodness! We have had thunder and lightning all night as well, with torrential rain.

I know we've had as much or more rain so far this winter as we did in the whole of the last one, because I've already used my tumble dryer more this year!

There will be at least a few days when you can call the UK and say "I'm in me shorts":D

The Canarias aren't immune either - parts of Tenerife were flooded yesterday.

hopefully it will be back to the sunshine for December,, I am back again on the 5th way hayyyyyy

Re: Is it ever going to stop raining?!?!?
 

I would kill for a tumble dryer ... All my clothes are covered in mud from trying to retrieve vegetables from the huerto (which now resembles a paddy field), and I've got nowhere to dry them!

Re: Is it ever going to stop raining?!?!?
 

I didn't have one for the first 3 years we lived here, and used to think people were daft who did, unless they lived in an apartment and didn't have anywhere to dry their washing. Then the winter of 2009/10 arrived - and I had to go out and buy a tumble dryer on 26 December. It got plenty of use that year and the following winter, but wasn't used once last winter as far as I recall. I still don't like washing dried that way, but sometimes you just have no choice!

segundamano.es

I've seen them for as little as €20.

Re: Is it ever going to stop raining?!?!?
 

I wouldn't resort to one in England, so I'm certainly not going to buy a one here, come hell or high water.
