June flames blown away, Tuesday 6th June 2017

I many respects we live in turbulent times, the weather is just one example.

Well forecast before the event the rain and wind of Monday 5th was expected, and whilst it's still blowing today its currently dry.

The Pembrey reserve will have benefited from the rainfall, although many of the breeding species will have struggled yesterday.

The weather station recorded 29.4mm of rain in the 24hrs from 09:00 Monday, (unfortunately currently the chart shows a cumulative figure so does not reflect the true picture)  and wind gusts of over 30mph.

An increasing threat - Wildfire

  Bore da pawb, Sounds dramatic and maybe an odd thing to think about given the amount of rain storm Bert dumped on South Wales in the past ...
