Northern Ireland has had enough rain to-day to last the ground a week.

Hi John! Welcome to the grapevine. We thought that a weather board would prove useful to gardeners and allotmenteers. It is a place where you can post about extremes of the weather, give weather forecasts, give warnings of frosts or storms. If members post the dates of their late frosts for example the following year the information will still be there. We hope to build up a really useful history of the weather that everyone growing fruit and vegetables can benefit from.
