Weather report 5

So, after more than three weeks of dry weather we finally got a bit of moisture. A few drops during the day turned into a deluge of biblical proportions in the evening. This means I do not have to water my plants or worry about my dry lawn anymore. In the middle of the photo is my very wet garden furniture. No harm done.

Biting the dust

No rain for a few weeks now, everything is turning brown and dusty. So is my car, The Comet. Driving on the little unpaved roads has its price. Funnily you can se the aerodynamic features on this photo. The dust has collected just over the back hatch and not much any place else. While writing this a few drops falls from a lead grey sky. Just a few drops.

Thunder, lightning, the way you love me is frightening. Wheeling my way home from work I got in the way of a terrific thunderstorm. Flash, thunderclaps and rain are the usual combination. The extra ingredient this time was a stinging moment of hail. Ouch, it did hurt when the little hailstones smashed into my face. Have a wasp sting your nose and you´ll know what I´m talking about. The sound from my helmet clad head was a smattering noice. End result of the rain was a few litres of water in my shoes not to mention my clothes...

Soaking wet I stumbled into the local bakery and got myself a hefty piece of cinnemon bun for my afternoon tea before doing my laundry.

No biking for the guy across the court yard today. Guess you can see the rain pouring down, grey streaks obliquely across the photo. This weekend has been on/off weather wise for most of the time. As I write this sun is back...

A dogs and cats kind of rain made me stay inside today. My window looked like the ones they use to have at the fishmongers, rivulets streaming down the pane for an hour. Hope the doors to the balcony will keep tight till replacement day later this year. Was my head feeling heavy because of low air pressure or because of yesterdays action?
