KaBOOM!

Just the one, and no lightning, but boy is it chucking down.

Dark enough for some of the more sensitive street lights to come on.

Did someone say that it's July? :roll:

We have winds in excess of 50mph forecast for tomorrow - south-westerly which means they funnel down our road, full-force. :o
I've been out this afternoon securing wheelie bins and moving tomato patio plant pots to somewhere hopefully :? more safe.

Ossie, one minute it is clear, fine and warm, the next it is monsoon season! Crazy,

April showers of yesteryear don't come close.

Tomatoes don't grow well up here, and the Polar Bears prefer black bin trash. ;) Rumour has it that we are in for a heatwave in a few weeks. I might be able to turn the heating off. :roll:

Same winds predicted here Ossie.
It's been a really miserable grey, wet and just meh day today. Frank, I looked at a long term forecast and it was absolutely depressing - no heat at all in sight :cry: :cry: :cry:

You-ll just have to move over here Ria :lol: :lol:

I have no idea how we're missing the extreme heat, but I actually came inside earlier, because I was cold :shock:

There is rain up north and it is only 23C here :shock: :o

Even the cat has come inside :lol:

David was in Faro for two days and two in Lisbon last week and he was amazed how so much cooler it was than here.
He even felt a bit chilly one night. :shock:

Then he came home to furnaceville.... :lol:
