==============================​​​=========== ===========
A much improved picture (well, it would take something to be worse than than yesterday). Today's been the sort day that would have once been referred to as a 'good drying day'. I don't suppose it's much fun if you live somewhere that's prone to flooding, but if you're not, and providing you don't suffer in other ways (such as lightning strikes) then storms like yesterday can be a real treat for those interested in seeing what Mother Nature can do when she thinks fit.
Watching the approach of yesterday's storm was truly spectacular. The way the sky darkened with ominous menace - you just knew it was the portent of something out of the ordinary.
Regards... David Allan.
