We had a horrendous downpour an hour or so ago, strong winds too, but both stopped as quickly as they started.

Same here.....now weather station is saying pressure is going up and changed the rainy symbol to cloudy....

The new replacement german built weather station i have seems a lot more accurate than the chinese one i had .....

We just had that here, sky clear now, but more cloud behind that. It's heading east whatever it is.

It's blowing hard here and I've just got back from a walk round the harbour and along the sea front.  It's not too bad at the moment but it will be pretty wild later on if it's still blowing at high tide which is around 00.45.  ::)
