Very Wet weather coming.

We are hurrying to complete the weatherproof box, including guttering, before the rains come. The drainage needs prioritising too as we are creating a surge of water off the new roof that used to be spread around.

The ground turns to battlefield conditions October to March in a normal autumn so this is a worry.

El nino likely to cause wetter and warmer-than-normal autumn

I'd take it with a grain of salt. By all means do what you need to get the site sorted before it gets too bad but don't panic.

Of course. But last year a forklift or excavator  made 400mm indents through turf, so that will happen again, or worse.

 

The weather prediction from the Pacific to here is very approximate of course. 

 

But for those of us with any weather dependent processes, it's worth pushing now.
