Raining here. It was quite heavy an hour or so ago, but has eased off and now stopped.

According to the forecast it should be raining heavily here right now. But it isn't.
Looking ahead it starts raining again at 0500 tomorrow morning and doesn't stop until 2200 on Sunday. Lovely.

Hardly any rain today, the forecast was completely wrong. So much for the weather warnings.
Rained all day here. It eased up twice enough to walk the dog while it was just spitting (the rain that is, not the dog ).
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
Dry and sunny all day, about 13c

Just a few spots today, not even 0.5mm. But more forecast tonight and tomorrow.
More rain, it's still not stopped.
