The rain it raineth


The weather went back to its bad old habits overnight – more of this new rain pattern, very heavy but thankfully short lived & highly localised downpours.

At least we have had a good week with no rain at all. The sun managed to pierce the early morning mists on Monday & Tuesday, but could not chase away the cloud cover on Wednesday.

When I went to put out the bins at midnight the ‘mist’ was hanging in highly visible water droplets right down to ground level.

The tops of the hills were completely shrouded all day Thursday.

Yesterday was dry & cloudy, but cold.

Now this.

I expect that was our summer for this year.
