      Woken by a huge clap of thunder and heavy rain. Both are moving off now but I don't think that is the end of the rain for today.

        Not certain because it threw the trip switch on the electric :doh: Took me a while to find the step ladders to sort the circuit board out (strategically placed so children can't get to it ... or any "normal" sized person .... or me! :redface: ). Probably a little later than that though, to be fair - it did have to travel a little bit twix you and me :heehee:

        There was just 3 episodes. I counted 1) at 9 miles 2) didn't count 3) 5 miles which was a deep roar and rumbled on for about 6 seconds( sounded like Ozzy). No more and I :snooze: back off until 7am when the downstairs clock does it first chime. ..( Not allowed to chime after 9.45pm at night)

              A dry cold day today with a mixture of sunshine and clouds. The clouds started to build up more and more during the afternoon but we've still had no rain. The temperature now is 49f with a pressure reading of 1018mb. The Weather Station is predicting rain sometime in the next 8 hours or so........we shall see!!:coffee::snork:

                It's coming your way Armandii! It's been nasty here for a couple of hours now, rain blowing on a gale, 13C. It looks like it's here for the rest of the week too. :sad:

                  Well, I've been keeping an eye on the weather all day, Sheal, as I had my telescope mount outside powered up to install the GPS function into the Controller by acquiring signals from the GPS Satellites.........which took 3 and a half hours before I got 3 satellites to give a 3 point fix.:gaah::heehee: Still, it's done now so shouldn't need to be done again unless I take my scope on holiday.:coffee:

                    Yesterday was sunny and I'm hoping today will continue in the same way.

                    ARMANDII, you can get a magnificent magnified view of the rain!
