2in of rain in one day ain't exactly a soft days rain or anything. Ground is already saturated, no field work done.It's February, it's supposed to rain, what is everyone getting in such a panic about, it's better to get it now than in the summer

Be sure to leave the bucket the right way up. Some of the elderly members are struggling with it a bit.I have my rain gauge out well actually its a bucket but if there is an inch of water in it in the morning I'll do a mathematical conversion and assume we had 25mm overnight.

It's not a day for rolling back the cover on the silage pit anywayVery strong winds and rain here all night, still going now. The sheeting was coming off the wood store so have tied it down for now until it can be fixed.
With the sound of it outside it was even hard to roll back the bed clothes.It's not a day for rolling back the cover on the silage pit anyway
