Thunderstorms have arrived. Only 8 hours later than predicted. Much noise and light show, heavy downpours, flash floods in the road outside and all set to continue all night. Should be less steamy though so we'll sleep better and my veg patch will enjoy it.
Vendée - 20kms from Atlantic coast.

It is the months worth or rain stuff again-how you can have a months worth of rain twice in less than a month is a bit perplexing-but it looks though it will be centred on the Leeds area outwards-there is likely to be more flooding
Lovely warm and suny day here in Bristol. Cut the grass and done some dead heading. Had the last of our very tall conifers taken down yesterday so a bit of clearing up to do....weather permitting !
Teesside. Had to go out after the storm the sun was back and very warm, a quick shower on the way out and on the way back then sunshine until late when I looked out and could not see across the road for thick mist off the sea. We have orange warnings for tomorrow, oh dear.

Blimey- I do sound full of gloom
It was a lovely day... roses etc were all beginning to dry out.
Some flowers - verbascums and hemerocallis - have decided it's safe to come out and just beginning to bloom.
