It was lovely and warm while walking the dog. The sky was very moody I thought I was going to get wet, but it remained dry.

Hello Kielder Right here we go, the stick is made of willow, you nail it to the outside of the shed or something sim, when the weather is warm dry sunny etc etc the stick bends up when it feels damp in the air or fog or rain it goes down, in torrential rain it is more than bent downwards like a banana but its the other way if really really hot. They do work ive had mine years and folks who see it say "where can I get one". Ebay probaly do maybe novelty shops of some sort, ........ go on get one you will soon be addicted to it like i am and few others on here under £8.00 sheila

Weather stick didnt let me down,it must have rained last night just enough to wet the path but by this morning stick took a definite upturn and this morning has started dry and bright.Have already been out for a walk with the dog,did a bit of birdwatching too.Nothing exciting to observe just the crows,some shelducks flying onto Sandpit hill and a variety of songbirds.
Back to reality for a couple of hours-shopping Groan.Will see how the day progresses weather wise,stick is sticking straight out with slight upward tip!!

Bright and sunny here in the Chilterns this morning. I'll think I'll go looking for some wildflowers this afternoon.

A beautiful morning - brilliant blue sky, not a cloud to be seen and not too hot - going to get out and try and make the most of it!
