Stormy Weather

[Petrushka]

Move to southern France

Now that is a recommendation! Sadly, I can't see it happening unless those 6 numbers come up.

Mid-afternoon, and been absolutely shovelling it down for hours, fells in total whiteout, clouds grazing rooftops, washing out on line, can't be fashed to fetch it in.

Weather behaving exactly as forecast here in the Pennines today - a lovely morning with lots of sunshine and a warm breeze (perfect drying weather); then, turning cloudier around noon and at two o'clock, the rains began (managed to get the washing in before it got a real hold, sorry, DracoM!) and it's been chucking it down ever since. And so dark, already.

It has been absolutely gorgeous down here. Really, like a summer day, just below 20 degrees, wall to wall sunshine.

Getting dark too early, and didn't really have any washing to do.

Hope it stays nice, got to do Cornwall and back tomorrow.

Sorry, but it's coming your way too, I gather.

... a gorgeous day in Chiswick; golden leaves of acacia and ginkgo against cloudless blue sky, sun shining on London stock brick and stucco, heaps of autumnal leaves on the pavement for the kids to scurry through... the only depressing sight that of the many horse-chestnuts so blighted by leaf-miners.

Likewise east of Eden: the Parks resplendent on the daily cycle into work, shirtsleeve order everywhere. Shortly, a gentle potter on the bike across Blackfriars bridge for Schubert and Schumann from Arcadi Volodos at the RFH, and then a refreshing ride back to the environs of Baynard's water

Stretched out across the northwestern horizon like a whitewashed skirting, slowly creeping this way when last I looked at around four - one of the best defined advancing frontal systems I have witnessed for a long time. I shan't be cycling tonight...

More or less continual rain here for the last four days. Loch Ness level with the road, and Caledonian Canal almost overflowing. Spectacular waterfalls all the way along the A82 to Inverness. Rain stopped at last.

Bugger. Are you serious? Shall I get home at c. 10pm dry? :erm:

If the timing's accurate you should be OK, Cali - maybe just a few preminary spots not long before midnight

[BBMmk2]

Another sunny day down these parts! :)

More or less right you were, S_A ..... Arcadi Volodos kept us until just before 10pm with 4 encores, so I'm not long back at the ranch - unmoistened, save for the slightest, lightest water drops borne upon the breeze which virtually dried in that breeze. I had a countable number of tiny water drops on each lens of my specs just now. Still mild and the breeze made for a refreshing 35 minutes after a stunning concert

[BBMmk2]

4 encores? A very generous artist, indeed!!

Rather drizzly and misty. today.

(Where Anna? Hope she's 0k?)

[DracoM]

Yep, well. rock hard frost oop north. Temp as I write 0C.
